Dashboards can be shared via a link and, for example, be published on an Intranet. This makes them accessible to users without a GridVis login.

When a logged-in GridVis user opens a shared dashboard link, the dashboard is displayed in the user's view.
You cannot link to the following elements from a shared dashboard:
Non-shared dashboards
Shared dashboards whose devices are replaced when opened
Non-public URLs
