Sharing a single item
You don't have to share a whole board. Make one item public and share its link, let readers comment on or edit a note, or invite specific people to just that item with view or edit access.
Sharing isn't all-or-nothing. Besides sharing a whole board, you can make a single item public and hand out its link — anyone can open it, no Eden account needed. Or invite specific people to just that item, with view or edit access per person.
Sometimes you want to share one thing, like a note, a card, or an image, without opening up the board it lives on. A single-item link does exactly that.
Share one item
- 01
Right-click the item
Right-click the item on the canvas or in the Library to open its menu.
- 02
Make it public
Choose the share (make public) action. Eden generates a public link for that one item.
- 03
Copy and share the link
Paste it anywhere: a message, an email, a doc. Whoever opens it sees just that item, and they don't need an account.
Let readers comment on, or edit, a note or table
A public note or table is read-only by default. Its Share panel has two more levels:
- Anyone with the link can comment: readers get a Comments button and can comment on a passage of a note, or right-click a cell of a table, but can't edit anything. Details in comments on notes and items.
- Anyone with the link can edit: readers can change the content itself, live, alongside you, and comment too. On a table that means rows and cells; columns, views, and the table's name stay with your workspace. Use it for a doc or list you're building with people who aren't in your workspace.
Both need the reader to sign in (a free account is fine), so every comment and every edit has a name on it. Anyone can still read without an account. Workspace owners get a summary email when someone outside the workspace comments. To take access back, switch the note to "can view" or Private; edits already made stay, and version history has the earlier copies.
Notes with a table inside
If the note you're sharing has a table embedded in it, the person opening the link sees the real table and its rows. Their access to the table matches their access to the note: view means read-only, edit lets them change rows and cells (columns and the table's name stay with your workspace members). If they duplicate the note, the table is copied into their Library alongside it, so their copy works on its own.
Single item vs. whole board
Sharing one item exposes exactly that item and nothing else around it. Sharing a board shares everything on the board, its sections, and its chat, and lets the receiver duplicate the whole board into their own account. Reach for a single-item link when you want to point someone at one specific thing; share a board when you want to hand over a full collection or a template.
Sharing a board with a collaborator
Boards are shareable. Hand out a view link to anyone, invite specific people with view or edit access, and let receivers duplicate the board as their own.
Inviting people to a note, board, or table
Share a single note, board, or table with specific people by email. Choose whether each person can view or edit. Invites are free and don't use a seat.
Comments on notes and items
Leave threaded comments on any item in your Library, highlight a passage in a note to comment on it, pin comments to a board, and let readers of a shared note or board comment without giving them edit access.
Tables
Create and work with database-style lists using columns, statuses, group-by, and the list, kanban, and calendar layouts.
The Library: everything you've saved, in one place
The Library is your workspace-wide home for every link, PDF, image, note, saved post, and highlight. Here is how it works and how it relates to boards.
