By default, your Start.me page is private and accessible only to you. However, you can choose to share your page, allowing others to view or edit it. Note that some sharing options require a PRO subscription.
Open Share settings
When you're on a Start.me page you own, you'll see the share button in the header. Click it, to see your options.
Collaborate: share by email
You can use this option to share a page by email while keeping it private. Only you and the person you’ve shared it with will have access. A (free) Start.me account is required.
Instructions
Click the Share button in the header of your page.
Under Collaborate, locate the address box and type the recipient’s email address.
Click Invite to send the invitation.
The recipient can then accept the invitation and log in or create a Start.me account to view the page.
If needed, you can:
Grant editing rights,
Transfer ownership, or
Revoke access by selecting options from the dropdown menu next to their name.
There’s no limit to the number of users you can invite to collaborate this way.
Note
To grant editing rights to someone you've invited, you'll need a PRO subscription.
Collaborate: share with a Team
As the owner or administrator of a team, you can share a personal page with your team, turning it into a team page.
Instructions
Click the Share button in the header of your page.
Under Collaborate, locate the Share with team dropdown. If you are the owner or administrator, you’ll see the option to select the team you want to share the page with.
By default, the sharing setting is Everyone can view. You can change this to Everyone can edit or Restrict to selected members.
If you want to transfer ownership or grant editing rights to specific members, you can do so by selecting the appropriate option from the dropdown next to each member’s name.
Warning
When you transfer ownership, you will become an editor of this page, but you no longer have control over the main settings (share, archive or delete) of this page. Because of this, you'll see a pop-up to confirm.
To remove the page from a team and make it private again, use the same dropdown as above, but select Unshare from [teamname].
Share by link
We currently provide the following options for sharing your Start.me page with a link:
Private Link
This is the default setting for every page. You need to login to Start.me to gain access. Search engines will not index this page.
Shareable Link
When you select this option, you can copy and share the page URL by email, social media channels, or on a blog. Anyone with the link will have the right to view.
Search engines will not index this page.
Protected Link
For added security, you can set a generic password for your page. Only the people you shared the password with, will be able to view your page. You'll need a PRO account to use this feature.
Search engines will not index this page.
Public Link
Anyone on the internet (incl. Google) can view this page. To combat spam, we require a PRO account to publicize your page to the world.
