Shareable Issue Links & Client Shares
Share QA findings with clients, stakeholders, and teammates via a single link. Recipients see severity badges, status indicators, screenshots, and element metadata in a clean, read-only view. No account or login required.
Shareable issue links let you bring clients, agency partners, stakeholders, and teammates into the QA process without requiring them to create an OverlayQA account or access your project tracker. Each link opens a table view of every captured issue, complete with severity badges, screenshots, CSS selectors, and viewport metadata. Clients and reviewers can see what was found and understand the scope of work without switching between tools.
The shared view is read-only, so recipients can review without accidentally modifying your issue data. Use shareable links to replace screenshot threads in Slack, email chains with annotated PNGs, and status update meetings where you walk through each issue one by one.
Why shareable issue links matter
- Clients and stakeholders see progress without tracker access — Share a single link with clients, PMs, or executives who need visibility into QA findings but do not use Jira, Linear, Notion, Asana, or Trello.
- No account needed for recipients — Anyone with the link can view the full issue table. No sign-up, no login, no permissions to configure.
- Full context in one link — Every issue includes severity, status, screenshots, CSS selectors, and viewport metadata, so recipients understand the full picture without follow-up questions.
- Replaces screenshot threads and status meetings — Instead of pasting screenshots into Slack or walking through issues in a call, send a single link and let stakeholders review on their own time.
Frequently asked questions about shareable issue links
- What is a shareable issue link?
- A shareable issue link is a public, read-only URL that shows your captured issues with screenshots, severity, and status. Anyone with the link can review the list in a browser without creating an account or logging in.
- Who can see a shared issue link?
- Anyone who has the URL. The page is read-only: viewers see issue details, screenshots, severity, and status, but they cannot edit anything in your project.
- What is the difference between a shareable issue link and a client review link?
- A shareable issue link is a read-only view of issues you already captured, built for status visibility. A client review link is interactive: reviewers pin new feedback directly on the page and each comment becomes an issue. Use the first to report, the second to collect.
- Which plans include shareable issue links?
- All plans. Shareable issue links are available on Freelancer, Starter, and Pro, with no login required for viewers.
