Enabling Public Sharing

1

Go to TV Dashboard Settings

Toggle “Enable Public Share Link” to ON
3

Copy Share URL

Copy the generated share URL:

Open the URL on your NOC display in a browser

Security Considerations

The share link provides read-only access to your status dashboard. Anyone with the link can view your Stack status. Do not share this URL publicly unless intended.
Best Practices:
  • Regenerate the token periodically
  • Use organization-level access controls
  • Disable sharing when not needed
  • Use authenticated access for sensitive environments

Regenerating the Share Token

If your share link is compromised or you want to rotate credentials:
  1. Navigate to TV Dashboard settings
  2. Click “Regenerate Token”
  3. Previous share links will immediately stop working
  4. Share the new URL with authorized displays
