Draft preview
The draft preview feature lets you share a work-in-progress page with external reviewers without them needing a Griddo account. Access is granted through a secure link with a limited lifespan.
What is it for?
Section titled “What is it for?”When you need someone outside your team (a client, a collaborator, or a reviewer) to see a page before publishing it, you can generate a preview link. The person who receives the link accesses the draft directly from their browser, with no sign-ups or passwords.

- Share: In the preview bar, click (Share) to open the sharing options.

Expired token: how to reactivate it
Section titled “Expired token: how to reactivate it”When the token expires, the link stops working. Depending on how much time has passed since expiration, the behavior differs:
- 15 days or fewer: a banner appears at the bottom of the editor letting you know it has expired, with the option to generate a new one directly from there.
- More than 15 days: no banner appears.** The flow is identical to creating a token for the first time.**

- Share From preview mode (), click (Share) in the preview bar, or access it from the fixed notification by clicking here.
- Modal: The modal will show the Expired status with 0 days remaining and the date it expired. The link appears disabled and cannot be copied.
- Generate again: Click
Generate new link. A new token is generated with a validity of 15 days. Copy the link and share it with your reviewers. - Info: The fixed notification at the bottom updates with the new expiration date.
