Sharing Templates

Orshot Studio allows you to share your templates with others in multiple ways. You can create public links, embed templates in websites, or send templates directly via email.

Enable Public Sharing#

Before you can share a template, you need to enable public sharing:

1. Open your template in Orshot Studio
2. Click the Share button in the toolbar
3. Toggle the Share Template switch to enable public sharing

When you enable sharing, Orshot generates a unique public link that allows others to view and interact with your template without needing an account.

Sharing Options#

Public Link#

Once sharing is enabled, you get a public link that you can share anywhere:

• View Mode: Recipients can view the template in read-only mode
• Play Mode: Recipients can interact with template parameters but cannot save changes
• Presentation Mode: Recipients can view the template in full-screen slideshow mode

You can copy different mode links using the dropdown next to the "Copy Link" button.

Social Media Sharing#

Share your templates directly on social platforms:

• Twitter/X: Share with a pre-formatted tweet
• LinkedIn: Share on your LinkedIn feed
• Pinterest: Pin your template to Pinterest boards

Click the respective social media buttons to open a new window with the sharing interface pre-filled.

Embed in Websites#

Embed your templates directly into websites or applications:

1. Copy the embed code from the Embed this Template section
2. Paste the HTML code into your website
3. The template will be displayed as an interactive embed

Available embed modes:

• View Mode: Read-only embed for viewing
• Play Mode: Interactive embed with parameter controls
• Presentation Mode: Full-screen slideshow embed

Example embed code:

<embed
  src="https://orshot.com/templates/shared/[hash]/embed"
  style="width: 100%; height: 100%; border-radius: 8px;"
/>

Email Sharing#

Send templates directly to others via email:

1. Enter the recipient's email address
2. Click Send
3. The recipient will receive an email with the template link and preview

The email includes:

• Template name and thumbnail
• Your name as the sender
• Direct link to view the template
