## **Sharing your Canvas within Canvas:**

* Click on the **`Invite+`** icon found at the top right of your [<mark style="color:purple;">**Canvas**</mark>](https://www.canoa.supply/canvas) board.

* Next to "Anyone with Link," toggle the drop down menu to **Can View**.
* Click **Copy Link**.
* Paste this link wherever you'd like to share it, like embedding your Canvas to a website, document or message. The public link allows for View-only access, so you don't have to worry that your Canvas will be edited.

You can also share your Canvas with specific people by entering in their emails.

* Enter the email(s) of those you want to invite to your Canvas, and separate between emails with a comma.
  * Don't forget to set their permissions - an **Editor** has full access to collaborate and edit your Canvas, while a ***Viewer*** is view-only.
* Click **Share**.

  * Don't forget to set their permissions - an ***Editor*** has full access to collaborate and edit your Canvas, while a **Viewer** is view-only.
* Click **Share**.

{% hint style="info" %}
Sharing is unlimited regardless of your account tier on Canoa. For example, if you have a free account, other users can share their Canvases with you and surpass the two Canvas limit set on free accounts. These would be 'View Only' Canvases.
