# Share dashboard
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Share a dashboard via the share icon in the top nav. This opens the share dialog where you
|
|
|
|
can get a link to the current dashboard with the current selected time range and template variables. If you have
|
|
|
|
made changes to the dashboard, make sure those are saved before sending the link. Below are ways to share a dashboard.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Dashboard snapshot
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A dashboard snapshot is an instant way to share an interactive dashboard publicly. When created, we <strong>strip sensitive data</strong> like queries
|
|
|
|
(metric, template and annotation) and panel links, leaving only the visible metric data and series names embedded into your dashboard. Dashboard
|
|
|
|
snapshots can be accessed by anyone who has the link and can reach the URL.

|
|
You can publish snapshots to your local instance or to [snapshot.raintank.io](http://snapshot.raintank.io). The latter is a free service

|
|
|
provided by Grafana Labs, that allows you to publish dashboard snapshots to an external Grafana instance.

|
|
The same rules still apply, anyone with the link can view it. You can set an expiration time if you want the snapshot to be removed
|
|
|
|
after a certain time period.
