A shared link turns one conversation into a read-only web page. Anyone with the link can read it, even without a Slashy account, which makes it the fastest way to show a thread to a lawyer, an advisor, or a client. The page stays live: new messages in the conversation appear on it until sharing stops.

Share this email dialog with a search field, a contact list, and Copy link and Share buttons
Copying the link the first time turns sharing on for that conversation. People you invite are notified about new messages and comments. Contacts who already have the link show Has the link.
Anyone who holds the link can read the conversation, including attachments. Share it only with people you trust, and stop sharing when you are done.

What people see

Viewers open a clean page with every message in the thread, who sent it, and who shared it. They do not need an account to read. To comment, a viewer signs in with Google. Comments appear in your reading pane under Comments on the web, separate from your team’s internal comments, which never leave Slashy. Reply from that panel, react with an emoji, or type @ to mention someone on the conversation.

See what you have shared

A conversation with a live link shows Shared by link under its subject, and a link icon next to it in your inbox list. Click Shared by link to reopen the share dialog.

Stop sharing

Turn a link off from the Slashy mobile app: open the conversation, open thread actions, and tap Stop sharing. The link stops working right away for everyone who has it, and visitors see “This link is not available.” Tap Share link in the same panel to share the conversation again with a link you can send through your phone’s share sheet.

Team control

Team owners and admins can turn sharing off for everyone on the team in Settings > Team with the Share emails by link toggle. When it is off, members see a message that the team turned off public links. See Team management.
