Sharing and Collaboration

Why shared pages cannot be edited directly

Symptoms

After opening a share link, the page shows a read-only prompt and field configuration cannot be edited directly.

Quick checks

Whether the top page shows the "share link is read-only" banner.

Steps

1. Click Save as copy and edit in the banner. Result: the system saves a copy and returns to home.
2. Continue editing the copied table on home. Result: you are now in editable state without changing the original shared view.

If still unresolved

Confirm you clicked Save as copy and edit inside the shared page, not browser back navigation.

How to enter editable state from a shared page

Symptoms

You need to continue design based on shared content, but the current page is read-only.

Quick checks

Whether the page shows the status "Current: Shared copy (read-only)".

Steps

1. On the shared page, click Save as copy and edit. Result: the system creates an editable copy.
2. Wait for automatic redirection to home. Result: workspace loads the copy and you can continue editing and saving.

If still unresolved

If auto-redirect does not happen, refresh home and find the newly created copy in Saved Tables.

Why opening a share link redirects to home

Symptoms

After opening a share link, it redirects to home and shows "Share link not found or expired" or "Load failed".

Quick checks

• Whether the link is beyond the 7-day validity period.
• Whether the link was truncated or manually modified.

Steps

1. Ask the sender to regenerate and resend a new link. Result: this avoids old-link expiration.
2. Copy the full link into browser address bar and open it. Result: this avoids parameter truncation by chat tools.

If still unresolved

Ask the sender to verify the new link in their own environment first, then forward it to collaborators.

Why repeated sharing returns the same link

Symptoms

When clicking Share multiple times without content changes, the generated link is identical.

Quick checks

Whether current table configuration is exactly the same as the last shared state.

Steps

1. Confirm whether current configuration has actually changed. Result: if unchanged, link reuse is expected behavior.
2. If a new link is required, make one valid change first, then share again. Result: the system generates a link for the new state.

If still unresolved

Confirm whether current link is still within the 7-day validity period. If expired, reshare.

What is the difference between Draft box and Saved Tables

Symptoms

You believe the table was already "saved", but cannot find a named table in the list.

Quick checks

• Whether you are currently in Draft box.
• Whether "Save current table" was executed with a name.

Steps

1. Check workspace status tag and confirm whether it is Draft box or a loaded table. Result: current data ownership is clear.
2. Click save at key milestones and provide a name. Result: the table enters Saved Tables for reliable collaborative loading.

If still unresolved

Search by table name in Saved Tables and confirm this is not caused by naming mismatch.
