New capability: Shareable cards!

Shareable links are the perfect way to share work with external parties who don't have access to your Favro organization.

You can share both collections, boards and cards with other users and external parties using the shareable links feature. To access shareable links, follow these steps:

How to get a shareable link:

Collection

Collection menu > Get shareable link

Board

Board menu (...) > Get shareable link

Card

Card top bar > Share


Levels of accessibility

There are three different levels of accessibility in our shareable links feature.

  1. Members of the collection

  2. Users with the same domain email

  3. Anyone with the link

Choose board views

When sharing a board, you can decide which view (e.g., Kanban, Timeline, etc.) the board is shown in.
Each view generates a unique link, allowing you to share the same board in multiple formats.

Shareable links allow externals to view your boards in the view you have chosen.


Cards and comments (for shareable boards and collections)

If you are on the enterprise plan, you are able to toggle on opening cards and adding comments for users who do not belong to the organization.

The option only appears when you select "Organization" or "Anyone with the link".

For Enterprise company setup please check this article: Shareable links for Enterprises - Secure sharing without adding a user in Favro


Visibility settings (for shareable cards only)

When sharing cards you can choose what of the content you would like to include or exclude :

  • Comments

  • Card fields.

The option only appears when you select "Organization" or "Anyone with the link".

Important note on visibility settings

If you share a card with someone who is already a member of your Favro organization and has access to the card, their view will not be limited by the visibility settings in the shareable link.

Organization access overrides shareable link settings. This means that existing members will still see all fields and comments available to them in Favro, regardless of whether you excluded these in the shared link.

If you share with someone who is already a member of your Favro organization, but does not have access to the card, their view will be limited by the visibility settings in the shareable link.
