Sharing a map

Share maps with custom permission settings and public or private access.

Share menu

Looking to manage share and control permissions for your entire org? See Managing members

To share your map, click on the Share button on the top-right corner of your map.

From this menu you can invite editor and viewer collaborators directly via email, or allow public access with dropdown setting.

There are several public access options:

Setting	Description
None	Only members directly invited to the map or who have access via the workspace can view the map. The most secure setting
View	Anyone with the link can view
View and comment	Anyone with the link can view and place location-based comments
View, comment, and edit	Anyone with the link can view and comment on the map. Anyone with a Felt account can also edit the map

Setting your map view

You can set a default view that Workspace members land on when opening the map. This ensures the map opens to a certain location and zoom level by default:

Felt Menu (top-left) → View → Set current view as default

When copying a map link through the Share menu using the Copy link button (bottom-right corner), the link automatically includes some URL parameters that point to your current view. Take the following URL:

https://felt.com/map/Kontur-Population-yiQAmRZ9CTTK49CHfYp9AauvC?loc=32.55,23.37,3.26z

The loc parameter specifies the center coordinates of the center of the view and thez parameter at the end of the URL indicates the level of zoom.

Using these parameters, you can share specific views of your map with people, or even embed different views of a same map on your website.
