Use invitations for controlled collaboration and public links for broad read-only sharing.
Invite a viewer or editor
If you own a collection, open the share icon in the top bar or the share section in collection settings. Enter the recipient's email and choose:
- Viewer to let the person open the collection without editing it.
- Editor to let the person change collection content.
Platix records the sender, recipient, requested role, invitation status, and resulting access relationship. Owners can cancel a pending invitation sent by mistake.
Share a public collection
Signed-in owners use the invitation flow when they need controlled access. A person who does not own the public collection can share its public link or grant only viewer-level access; they cannot create an editor.
Copy-link and operating-system share actions are available to public visitors without requiring an account.
Publish safely
Public visibility makes the title, description, places, eligible media, and creator attribution available to anyone. Private collaboration records, edit history, and owner-only controls are not returned to public viewers.
Review the collection before publishing, especially descriptions and uploaded photos. Change it back to private when it is no longer intended for public discovery.
Fork a public collection
Forking creates a separate collection. Choose its name and visibility in the fork dialog. Changes to the fork do not change the original.
