Creating and sharing a share link
Step-by-step guide
Open the video detail page
Go to your Dashboard and click the video you want to share. The video detail page will open with the full transcript visible.
Click Share
In the toolbar, click the "Share" button (it shows a chain-link icon). A Share Link dialog will appear.
Configure expiry and download permissions
In the dialog, set two options:
Copy the link
Click "Generate Link". A shareable URL will appear in the dialog. Click "Copy Link" to copy it to your clipboard. You can also click "Regenerate" at any time to invalidate the old link and create a fresh one.
Share it — no account required for recipients
Paste the link into an email, Slack message, or anywhere else. The recipient will be able to view and search the transcript in their browser without creating a YT Transcriber account. If you enabled download permissions, they will also see export buttons. Your account settings and other transcripts remain completely private.
