Sharing a score

Private links that need no account, and how to withdraw one.

Share is in the score's menu in the sidebar. It creates a link that opens a read-only view of the score, with your display settings applied. Whoever has the link can open it; no account is needed.

  • The title, the notation and your display settings.
  • Nothing else: not your name, not your email address, not the score's identifier.

The link contains 32 random bytes, so it cannot be guessed, and only a hash of it is stored. A copy of our database would not yield working share links.

Deleting the score revokes every link to it. A shared page that has been revoked shows that the link is no longer valid rather than an error.

Treat a share link like a password: anyone it reaches can open the score. Send it to the person who needs it rather than posting it publicly.
