Overview
Note: Only the owner of the chart or dashboard can create a public link to that chart or dashboard. The owner must also have Admin, Manager, or Member user permission level.
This feature is only available to users on the Scholarship, Growth, and Enterprise plans.
You can send public links to charts and dashboards to any person, even if he/she is not registered under your organization. This is helpful when you have users who you do not want to give full access to your data (board members, contractors, interns) but you want them to be able to view specific charts and metrics, e.g. retention and conversion rates. To manage all your public links, you can view them in the Settings page.
Public Charts
Note: Public links are not supported for Personas, Engagement Matrix, and Compass.
For example, if you have a funnel that tracks the rate of users who complete your tutorial process, then you can generate a public link and send it to the user interested in the funnel.
In the below image, we clicked on the "Share" icon in the top right corner of the chart as indicated by the blue box.
Once we click the "Create Link" button, a link to the chart will be randomly generated. Here you can revoke access or copy the link to your clipboard by hovering over the link. If you would like to create multiple Public Links, exit the "Share This Chart" popup and click the "Share" icon again. You will see the "Create Link" button in the bottom right.
From the link, the chart will be displayed as below. The chart is dynamic and will automatically update to the most recent information. To view this chart in Amplitude, click "View in Amplitude" in the bottom left corner.
Public Dashboards
Note: Currently, Compass, Pathfinder, and Behavioral Cohorts added to dashboards are not supported for public dashboards.
You can also create public links to dashboards that you own. To do this, click the "Share" icon in the top right corner of your dashboard.
Once we click the "Create Link" button, a link to the dashboard will be randomly generated. Here you can revoke access or copy the link to your clipboard by hovering over the link. If you would like to create multiple Public Links, exit the "Share This Dashboard" popup and click the "Share" icon again. You will see the "Create Link" button in the bottom right.
From the link, the dashboard will be displayed as below. The dashboard is dynamic and will automatically update to the most recent information. Users with an Amplitude account can view this dashboard in Amplitude by clicking on the dashboard title. Or, they can view any of the charts on the dashboard in Amplitude by clicking on the chart title.
Public Notebooks
You can also create public links to Notebooks that you own. To do this, click the "Share" icon in the top right corner of your Notebook.
Disable Public Links
All users have access to disable their own public links at the bottom of the General page under Settings. Admins will have access to disable the public links of all users in the organization.

Important Notes
- Public links can be shared with anyone until you revoke the link. Thus, please be cautious of who you share the link with and revoke the link when necessary.
- Once you revoke a link, you will not be able to re-enable it. Users who try to access revoked links will be directed to a 404 page.
- Charts are cached for 10 minutes for everyone.
