How do I share the security review and control who can view it?

Short Answer: Click ‘Share’, add emails in ‘Enter email address’ and choose a role, set ‘Document access’ to ‘Private’ or ‘Public’, then click ‘Save’ or use ‘Copy link’.

PreRequisites

1. Repository Issues page is open

2. You are signed in

Steps

1. Click ‘Share’ in the top-right of the page.
   The ‘Share security review’ modal opens.

2. Under ‘Share with your team’, type an email into ‘Enter email address’ and choose a role from the dropdown (default: ‘Member’).
   The email appears in the pending list.

3. Review ‘People with access’ to confirm who already has access and their roles.
   (e.g., Richard Roe — Admin, Jane Doe — Member, Alex Smith (you) — Owner).

4. Under ‘Document access’, select ‘Private’ or ‘Public’.

   • Private — “Only team members can view this security review.”

   • Public — “Anyone with the link can view. No login required.”

5. Click ‘Copy link’ to copy a shareable URL, or click ‘Save’ to apply changes (use ‘Cancel’ to close without saving).

Troubleshooting

1. ‘Share’ modal won’t open or ‘Share’ button not visible
   LikelyCause: Not signed in.
   Action: Click ‘Sign In’ or ‘Start For Free’ in the header, then try ‘Share’ again.

2. Recipients can’t view the link you shared
   LikelyCause: ‘Document access’ is set to ‘Private’.
   Action: Reopen ‘Share’, set ‘Document access’ to ‘Public’ or add the specific emails under ‘People with access’, click ‘Save’, then ‘Copy link’ again.

Note: Use ‘Public’ only when you’re comfortable with anyone who has the link being able to view the security review.
