Project Sharing

Create project share links with contact or public access, folder rules, downloads, comments, uploads, approvals, billing visibility, passwords, and expiry dates.

Project sharing creates controlled access to project files. Use it when a collaborator, client, label, or other contact needs to review, download, comment on, approve, or upload files without getting full access to your Songkeeper account.

Quick answer
A project share can be limited to selected contacts or created as a public link. You choose which folders are visible, whether downloads are allowed, whether comments or uploads are enabled, and whether the link requires authentication, a password, or an expiry date.

What a Project Share Can Control

ControlWhat It Does

Folder Access

Project shares use folder-level access rules across the same file domains Songkeeper uses in the file browser. Select only the folders the recipient should see, then decide whether files in those folders can be downloaded.

Latest File Only

Some folders support a latest only rule. When enabled, the share filters that folder to the newest eligible file instead of showing every version. Use this for mix or master reviews where the recipient should focus on the current file.

Comments, Uploads, Approvals, and Billing

  • Comments let recipients leave feedback on shared files. Comment authentication can be required separately.
  • Uploads let recipients submit files back to the project when enabled for the share.
  • File approvals let recipients approve shared files when approvals are enabled.
  • Billing visibility is available for project shares when you want shared recipients to see financial information.
Start narrow
For client review, start with the smallest set of folders and enable downloads only when recipients need the source file. You can edit a share later if the access needs change.
