Share a Website on the Go

The best way to share media, like a website, with your peers is to prepare a button in the agenda ahead of time. However, sharing it immediately in the CircleSpace™️ is very easy, too. All you need is the link:

  1. Copy the URL of the website you want to share. (You can do this by just clicking on the address line in your browser and then right-clicking and selecting ‘Copy’. You can also copy with your keyboard by simultaneously pressing the ‘CTRL‘ and ‘C‘ keys, or ‘Command‘ and ‘C‘ on Mac. )
  1. Open the left-hand side menu in the CircleSpace™️ and paste the URL into the ‘Paste media link‘ field. To do this, right click and select ‘paste’, or press the ‘CTRL‘ and ‘V‘ keys.
  1. Pressing enter/return will open the website within the CircleSpace™️ for all participants to see.

NOTE: Each participant can independently enlarge the media window by clicking on the right border and dragging it out. 

  1. Close the left-hand side menu by clicking the ‘X‘ on the top left.  
  2. To close the website for all participants, click the ‘X‘ to the top right of the media window.

Add a Collaborative Document to Your Agenda

In the CircleSpace™️, you can do things together. When you work together, you collaborate, you share deeply. In this article, you’ll learn how to add a button to your agenda that opens a collaborative Google document – one of the many types of documents that can be shared in the CircleSpace™️.

As long as you have the option to share your documents with anyone (including those that don’t already have an account with the same platform you are using), you can share it in the CircleSpace™️, using the sharing link or an embed code. A couple of examples include Dropbox, Onedrive and Zoho.
