Share a page with other users

You can share mashups with both individual users as well as groups of users in your company. When you share a mashup, you share the page that contains the mashup. Users with whom you have shared the page can choose whether or not to add that page to their navigation. You can give these users either view or edit access. If they have view access, they can only view the mashup. If they have edit access, they can add, delete, configure, and wire widgets. However, they cannot share the modified mashup page with other users, as they are not the owner. Notes:

  1. When a user initially shares a page, the current titles, descriptions, and metadata associated with that page are available to other users when they add the page to their navigation. However, subsequent changes by the owner to this information are not available to other users. Users who view a shared page have control over the titles and descriptions displayed in their view of the shared page.

  2. The description given here applies to non-private pages. When users share a non-private mashup page, the users with whom the page was shared will see the page in their navigation without having to accept the page. For details about private and non-private pages refer to the topic about Sharing content.

  4. In the Search Results list, select the check boxes beside the individuals and groups with whom you want to share your mashup.

  5. Click Add to View to give the selected users view access, and click Add to Edit to give the selected users edit access.
