How to generate a consultation web page of your Beesbusy project

The “Page shared for consultation via URL” feature

A project’s “Page shared for consultation via URL” feature of a project allows you to give insight into a project to people who don’t have access to it. Either because they don’t have a Beesbusy account, or because the project is not shared with them.

This is made possible by generating an HTML link directing to a web page displaying the project data.

This page can only be viewed in read-only.

Generate a shared page

Go in the settings of the project by clicking on the gear icon at the top right, the go to the “Page shared for consultation via URL” section.

Only project administrators can generate a shared page.

To generate a shared page, simply fill in the information below.

 

The accessible views

You can choose which view of the project will be displayed : it can be only one view, or two, or the three views.

Choose the views that you whant do display in the shared page via URL

The views are displayed with the same display options as in Beesbusy: zoom level in the What view, drop-down menu to display the planned times in the Who view, etc.

Expiry date

The date entered defines the end date of the generated link.

After this date, the link will no longer be operational.
