When you share a chat, Exponent creates a read-only link that anyone can view without needing to log in. Shared chats display all messages, code snippets, file changes, and other content from the original conversation, giving viewers full context of your work.

Sharing chats can be used for:

  • Showing solutions: Share how you solved a complex problem with Exponent
  • Onboarding team members: Share example workflows to help teammates get up to speed
  • Demonstrating issues: Share a chat showing an issue you’re experiencing to get troubleshooting help

Shared chats are read-only. Viewers can see all content but cannot interact with or modify the chat.

Disabling Sharing

If you no longer want a chat to be accessible through its shared link:

  1. Open the shared chat
  2. Click the Share icon (which will be highlighted to indicate the chat is currently shared)
  3. Click Disable sharing at the bottom of the sharing popover

Once disabled, the shared link will no longer work, and anyone with the link will receive an error message.
