A share lets you make content available to external users who don’t have a Fotoware Alto user account.

You can create a share in several ways:

  • Right-click a content item and select Share.
  • Select multiple content items in the content browser and select Share.
  • Share an entire collection.

When you create a share, the Create share dialog opens. 

You can specify the recipients and subject, add a description and expiration date, and configure options for metadata, language, and available formats.

Send to – Add the recipients of the share. You can leave this field empty if you want to copy and distribute the share link yourself.
Subject – Edit the automatically generated subject if needed. This field is required.
Description – Add an optional description.
Expiration date – Set the date the share expires.
Access metadata – Select a metadata layer from the dropdown list. 
Language – Select the language for the share. 
Items – View the content included in the share.

Empty shares

You can create and send a share without adding any content. This lets you distribute the share in advance and add content later. Content can also be added to the share automatically using business rules.
