Sharing a Private Room

  3. Choose one of the following sharing options:

    • Copy the URL to share outside of Artwork Archive, such as in an email.

    • Click Share to send directly from your Artwork Archive account

When a Private Room is 'Published', it is shareable but still private and not available to anyone without the URL.

When a room is 'Unpublished', the URL cannot be copied, pasted, or shared until it is marked as 'Published'.
