Public dashboards
Public dashboards are read-only share links to a Saved query. The recipient does not need a TrackCrumb account — they open the link and see the chart. Optionally, you can password-protect the link so only people who know the password can view.
Sharing a saved query
Open a saved query and click Share in the top bar. A drawer appears with two settings:
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Public sharing | Toggle on to generate a share URL. The URL stays valid until you revoke or rotate it. |
| Password protection | Optional. When set, viewers must enter the password before the chart loads. |
Click Copy link. The URL is of the form https://app.YOUR_DOMAIN/share/<token>.
What recipients see
The share page is a chrome-less version of the chart — no sidebar, no editing controls, no auth gate (unless password-protected). The header shows the query type and name; the body renders the latest result.
If you password-protected the link, the visitor sees a single password field. A correct password issues a short-lived bearer token in the browser, so refreshes don’t re-prompt within the session.
Share results are live — they re-execute against your data each time the link is opened, so the recipient always sees the latest numbers (not a snapshot from when you shared).
Revoking a link
In the same Share drawer, click Rotate token to invalidate the current URL and generate a new one. Anyone with the old URL gets a 404. Click Disable sharing to turn the feature off entirely for that saved query.
Workspace-level kill switch
Workspace owners can disable public sharing for the entire workspace under Settings. When off, all existing share URLs return 403 until sharing is re-enabled.
Limits & gotchas
- Password is per-link, not per-viewer — everyone with the link uses the same password.
- No analytics on the share page itself — TrackCrumb does not track who opens a shared URL.
- Mutating actions are not available — the share page is strictly read-only. Even with the password, no exports, edits, or saved-query mutations are possible.
