Introduction

Use Public Link when you want to share Jitra resources through a link that can be opened without signing in. A Public Link can include one or more:
  • Object
  • Geofence
  • Site
  • Route
When the link is opened, the recipient can view the shared resources on a live map. Public Link is different from Organization Sharing because it does not create a connection between Organizations. Open Share → Public Link, then click New. Enter a name to help you identify the Public Link. The name is used for internal management only and is not shown to recipients who open the link. Use the Active toggle to determine whether the link can be accessed. When the Public Link is Active, recipients can open the link. When it is inactive, the URL remains stored but is treated as invalid when accessed.

3. Select the Resources to Share

Choose the resources you want to display through the Public Link. You can select one or more resource types:
  • Objects
  • Geofences
  • Sites
  • Routes
Multiple resource types can be included in the same Public Link. Once the name, status, and resources are correct, click Save. Jitra automatically generates a Public Link URL and adds it to the Public Links list. Copy the URL from the Link column and send it to the recipient. The recipient does not need a Jitra account or need to sign in.

What Does the Recipient See?

When an active Public Link is opened, the recipient is taken directly to a live map. The map displays the resources included in the Public Link, such as:
  • Object positions
  • Geofences
  • Sites
  • Routes
Public Link provides access to live information only. Recipients do not have access to Object History through a Public Link. If you need to provide History access to another Organization, use Organization Sharing through My Shares. When a Public Link is inactive, the same URL cannot be used to access the shared resources. You can activate the same Public Link again later, and changing the Active status does not change the URL. Use Public Link when you want to share a live view through a URL without requiring the recipient to have a Jitra account. Use Organization Sharing when you want to share resources directly with another Organization in Jitra. To update resources, change the status, or delete a Public Link, see Managing Public Links.
