The Share link provides the ability to send a URL link to a specific topic (or other asset such as a module or question) in the Player to other users. The URL to the asset is a modeless topic launch point that can be cut and pasted to email or other messaging software.

The Share link appears when the Player is launched:

- in Standalone mode (via kp.html)
- as part of Usage Tracking mode within the Knowledge Center
- in any modeless launch
- using the Launch Player link in the Knowledge Center

Share link does not appear when the Player is launched from:

- a Knowledge Path in the Knowledge Center
- an LMS
- a TPC (standalone topic files) output
- a Windowed See It!
- a mode-specific launch
- play.exe

If the launch URL is to a topic, the user can select the appropriate play mode. If the URL is to a section or module, the concept displays. If the URL is to a question or assessment, the question or assessment displays.

To share content with the Share link:

1. Click the Share link.
2. Copy the URL that appears in the dialog box.
3. Paste the URL in an email or IM.

Note: Roles that have been set on the asset are not applicable. In other words, if you are viewing an asset within a role, you can send it to someone who is not assigned that role and they will be able to play it.
