Shared links are a new feature that allow users to generate a unique URL for a ChatGPT conversation, which can then be shared with friends, colleagues, and collaborators. Shared links offer a new way for users to share their ChatGPT conversations, replacing the old and burdensome method of sharing screenshots.

With shared links, users can let others see - and continue - interesting, funny, or insightful exchanges with ChatGPT.

We are turning on shared links for users on a rolling basis. Shared links are currently available only on our website, chat.openai.com. They are not yet available on our iOS app.

Hover over a chat:

and then click on the shared link icon:

Coming soon!

Hover over a chat and click on the share link:

You'll be able to preview the conversation snapshot you're about to send:

Then you have the option to share with your name or anonymously by clicking the three dots:

You can share your name by clicking the three dots and just click "Share your name":

Once you click "Share your name" it will appear in the shared link preview:

If you want to not include your name click the three dots again:

Then click "Share anonymously" to remove your name to update the preview to look like this:

When you're ready you can click the green button to copy the link to share it.

You can open up the link share modal for that conversation to click the three dots with options to update the name visibility (share your name or make anonymous). There is also the option here to delete the link if needed.

To save you need to click the green button that says "Update and Copy Link".

Anyone who has access to a shared link can view and continue the linked conversation. We encourage you not to share any sensitive content, as anyone with the link can access the conversation or share the link with other people.

If you've created a link that you no longer want to be public, you can delete the link or clear the conversation. The conversation will no longer be accessible via the shared link, but if a user imported the conversation into their chat history, deleting your link will not remove the conversation from their chat history.

By default, shared links will not include your name or any other personal information. You can choose to add your name when creating the link by clicking on the ellipsis in the shared link window, then clicking “Share your name.” If you add your name, it will appear on the page of your shared link at the top of the conversation. Please keep in mind that anyone with the link can view the conversation in a shared link.

A shared link is a snapshot of that entire conversation up to the point is is being shared. This means if there are many prompts/responses in the conversation all of them will be included.

For example, if I have a conversation with 10 prompts with responses then create a shared link to give out then when the recipient opens up that shared link they will not only see the most recent prompt / response but the entire history of prompts / responses up to that point which the shared link was created.

A. Sharing a specific conversation or message

This is particularly useful when you want to share a specific piece of information or a discussion with someone who is not part of the original conversation. This could be a notable example of a conversation, a specific discussion that needs to be referenced, or an important message that needs to be highlighted.

B. Sharing content with external collaborators

Shared links can be used to share content with people outside of your organization. This is useful when you have collaborators, such as contractors or clients, who need to see specific messages or conversations.

C. Creating a reference point for future discussions

Shared links can be used to create a reference point for future discussions. This can be particularly useful when you want to refer back to a previous conversation or message in the future.

No. Think of a shared link as a snapshot of a conversation up to the point at which you generate the shared link.

Once a shared link is created for a specific conversation or message, it will not include any future messages added to the conversation after the link was generated. This means that if you continue the conversation after creating the shared link, those additional messages will not be visible through the shared link.

Yes, if you delete the original ChatGPT conversation, the shared link will also be deleted. This means that the content will no longer be accessible via the shared link.

Please keep in mind that shared links allow viewers to import the conversation into their own chat history, so if you delete a shared link, the conversation will no longer be accessible via the shared link, but if a user imported the conversation into their chat history, the content may still be accessible from their chat history.

Yes, if you delete your account, all of your shared links will also be deleted. At that point those shared links will no longer be accessible or viewable by anyone.

Please keep in mind that shared links allow viewers to import the conversation into their own chat history, so if you delete a shared link, the conversation will no longer be accessible via the shared link, but if a user imported the conversation into their chat history, the content may still be accessible from their chat history.
