Public Share Links

Share your trip as a read-only link — no login required. Perfect for sharing itineraries with friends, family, or travel companions who don't have a TREK account.

  1. Open a trip in the planner
  2. Click the Share button in the navbar
  3. Select Public Link
  4. Choose what to include:
Permission What's Visible
Map & Plan Interactive map, day-by-day itinerary, places, notes
Bookings Reservations and accommodation details
Packing Packing list with categories and check status
Budget Expense breakdown and totals
Chat Collaborative notes, polls, and messages
  1. Copy the generated link and share it

Shared Page

The shared page is a beautiful read-only view with:

  • Cover image background and trip branding
  • Tabbed layout — only tabs matching the selected permissions are shown
  • Interactive map with place markers and day filtering
  • Day-by-day plan with places, times, notes, transport bookings, and accommodations
  • Language picker — Visitors can switch the UI language without needing an account
  • Always light mode — The shared page renders in light mode regardless of the logged-in user's theme
  • TREK branding with logo and tagline

How it Works

  • Each share link contains a unique token
  • Permissions are enforced server-side — the API only returns data matching the selected permissions
  • No authentication required — anyone with the link can view the trip
  • Share links can be revoked at any time by deleting them in the share settings

Notes

  • Shared pages are read-only — visitors cannot edit anything
  • The link works across devices and browsers
  • Share links do not expire automatically (unless revoked)
