Send the link to more people (no Apple Account required)

If your document’s access is set to “Anyone with the link,” you can invite more people to collaborate on the document by sending them a link that doesn’t require an Apple Account to view the document.

Note: If the document access is set to “Only invited people,” follow the instructions in the previous task, toolbar.

  • Choose a method for sending the link:

    • Mail or Messages: Type an email address or phone number for each recipient, add a note if you want, then click Send (for Mail) or press Enter (for Messages). A link to the file is sent to each recipient.

    • Notes: To share a link to the file in the Notes app, select or type the name of the recipients, click Share Link, choose the note where you want to save it (or create a new one), add text if you want, then click Save.

    • Share the link in another way: Click Copy Link, then click where you want to paste the link. Choose Edit > Paste (from the Edit menu at the top of your screen), or press Command-V on the keyboard.

    Important: The link to the document that’s created when you invite participants includes the document’s title. If the title or content of the document is confidential, be sure to ask recipients not to forward the link to anyone else.
