One of the key foundations of Showpad is the ability to share content with customers and prospects and track how they engage with those files via the Shares feature. After uploading your assets, it's important to make them available in the Experiences you created. Your sales reps can only share and access content if they have access to those Experiences and content.

Do this step by step
- Determine which uploaded content users can share.
- You can also look for specific assets using the search function. When searching, the engine also crawls through the content of documents.
Note: When using the search function in the Online Platform, the search engine splits the search terms into text and numbers. For example, if you search for "4th" this will show content with a "4" and content with "4th."
- Once you select your asset, you can edit the sharing properties in the asset library.
- Make the asset available in the Experience(s).
- Let users share content with customers and prospects. They can share via:
The Showpad Windows app (mail)
The Showpad iOS and Android apps (mail and link)
The Showpad Web app (mail and link)
The Showpad email add-ins (Outlook and Gmail)
It's important to know that sharing via a link and via our email plugins, does not give detailed analytics in the report settings of the Online Platform. You will see the device type and browser version because it is not possible to track who opened the link and who opened the email when it was sent to multiple recipients. - You can customize the look & feel of a Sharing theme.
- See Share analytics under the Reports tab.
