For now, let’s talk about sharable links.
How to create and share a ChatGPT link
Create a link for your ChatGPT conversation like so:
- On desktop: Open the chat > Click the “Share” icon (top-right) > Copy Link.
- On mobile: Open the chat > Click “GPT” at the top > Manage chat > Share.
We’ll use images to explain this better.
A. Desktop
1. Share icon
- Open a conversation
- Click the Share icon (top-right corner)
You’ll now see a pop-up.
2. Name privacy
Now, choose whether you include your name in the chat or not:
- If you say yes: The reader will see your name in ChatGPT
- If you say no: It will simply say “Anonymous”
For more privacy in ChatGPT, we suggest not including your name.
3. Copy & Share Link
- Click the green “Copy Link” button
- It is not in your clipboard.
How do you know this? ChatGPT itself lets you know:
Great! You can now paste it anywhere and have people see it.
4. Accessing it
This is what people will see once clicking on your link:
Of course, this will differ based on conversation’s content.
- Prompter’s icon: Purple
- ChatGPT’s icon: Orange
B. Mobile
On phones and tables, you want to share a ChatGPT conversation in these steps:
- Open the conversation
- Tap “ChatGPT” at the top
- Hit “Manage Chat” → “Share“
- Select “Share link“
The chat’s link is now copied to your clipboard. Feel free to paste it anywhere!
You can also customize the chat’s title and to share your name:
- Hide your name: Your messages will come from “Anonymous”, as you have no name.
- Show your name: The name will be taken from your billing details.
How to delete a chat’s link
Follow these steps to delete the link you’ve just created.
1. Settings
- Open ChatGPT
- Click your name (bottom-left corner)
- Select “Settings & Beta“
Automatically, ChatGPT will open the “General” section.
2. Data controls
You want to be in the “Data controls” part of settings.
- Look on the left
- Click “Data controls“
This opens up the panel we need.
3. Manage links
- Look at the “Shared links” section
- Click “Manage“
You’ll now see all of your existing links.
4. Delete it
For this example, we’ve only got one link.
We’re going to delete that one.
- Find the link you want to delete
- Click on the “Trash icon“
- The one that says “Delete shared link“
Once you do that, the link is gone.
What happens when you delete a shared conversation’s link?
You’ll get the “404 | This page could not be found.” message.
- Since the link doesn’t exist anymore, the page isn’t visible to the public.
- By clicking the expired link, the reader gets a 404 page.
Great! We’ve got that out of the way too.
