Sharing Views

Views can be shared with individual project members or groups of users. If a View was not shared at the time of creation, you can do so later from the View’s Detail Panel. 

A user’s ability to see a View is going to be dependent on their access to the parent folder where the file is located in Connect. For example, if the recipient has no access to the parent folder - then that user will not be able to open the View.
