Publication access, passwords, and permissions
Last updated: September 8, 2026 · 2 min read
Choose who can open the catalog and which reader tools are available.
Access control and visible download/print tools are separate. An unlisted link is not a password-protected link.
Follow these steps
- 1
Choose access mode
PrivacyAccess
In Share > Privacy, choose Public, Unlisted, Password Protected, or Private. An unlisted link can be forwarded by anyone who has it. Private is not a general sharing mode.
- 2
Save the password
PrivacyPassword
After choosing password protection, enter a password and use its Save button. Wait for the saved state. Selecting the mode or typing a password alone is not enough.
- 3
Review expiry and permissions
PrivacyPermissions
Check expiry when enabled. Set download formats, single-page download, and printing as needed. These controls manage reader tools; they do not recall files already downloaded.

Test reader access
ShareCatalog link
Open the link in a private browser window to separate reader access from your signed-in session. Test wrong and correct passwords, expiry, and the accessible link’s access conditions.
Result
Verify intended access conditions and the reader tools you enabled.
