# Share preview link

When working with an unpublished theme or better known as a draft theme, you can send out a ***Share preview link*** which allows anyone who has the link to preview your work/site. Share preview links expire after a certain number of days and are randomly generated by Shopify.

{% hint style="success" %}
This is a great tool for getting feedback from anyone who needs to view your site before it's live or to view a concept version of your existing site
{% endhint %}

Copy **this** link to send to our Support Staff - Not the URL in your browser:

### How to

* In the Theme Editor, click on the ellipses (three dots) icon at the top of the Theme Editor to view theme actions.
* Choose **Preview**
* When the new preview window appears, choose the green **Share preview button** at the ***bottom*** of your browser.
* The popup window will display a link (**middle** of your screen).&#x20;
* Click the **Copy link** button to copy the address to your clipboard
* Send us that link, paste it from your clipboard

#### Notes

Share preview links expire after a certain number of days and are randomly generated by Shopify.&#x20;

If you're using a live published theme, the preview option will appear as View. This indicates you are currently on the live site. A Preview share link can only be created from a draft theme which is not published.&#x20;
