Short Answer: Click "Share", enter email(s) in "Enter email address", choose a role (Member), set Document access to "Private" or "Public", then click "Copy link" or "Save".
PreRequisites
-
Be signed in (recommended for sending invites).
-
Open the repository Issues page and click the top-right "Share" button.
Steps
-
Click the "Share" button in the top-right of the Issues page.
The "Share performance review" modal opens. -
In the modal, add teammates’ email addresses in "Enter email address" and use the role dropdown (default shows "Member") to set their access role.
Entered emails appear in the invite field and will be granted the selected role. -
Review the "People with access" list to confirm who already has access and their assigned role (e.g., Richard Roe — Admin, Jane Doe — Member).
Existing users and their access roles are visible. -
Under "Document access", choose "Private" (only team members can view) or "Public" (anyone with the link can view).
The selection is applied, and the description updates (for Public, it shows: "Anyone with the link can view. No login required."). -
If you need a shareable link immediately, click "Copy link". To apply changes, click "Save". To exit without saving, click "Cancel" or the X.
"Copy link" copies the URL, while "Save" persists the access settings and closes the modal.
Troubleshooting
-
The Share button does not open the modal.
Likely Cause: You are not signed in, or the page did not load correctly.
Action: Click "Sign In" (top-right if visible) and try again. Refresh the page if needed.
-
You accidentally set Document access to "Public" and want to revoke it.
Likely Cause: Public access allows anyone with the link to view the document.
Action: Reopen "Share", switch Document access back to "Private", and click "Save" to restrict access.
Note: Setting Document access to Public allows viewing by anyone with the link (no login required). Use this setting cautiously for sensitive repositories or performance reviews.
