Create a Share Link

Create a shareable link for your CANVID screen recordings with one click. Upload, export, and share instantly.

Want to instantly share your exported video? With CANVID’s Create a Share Link feature, you can upload your video to the cloud and generate a shareable link, all in one step.

How It Works

The Create a Share Link option is available under Export in the Editor.

Go to the editor

Finish a new recording, or open an existing project.

Export

Click Export at the top-right section of the Editor

Set then toggle

Choose your settings in the Export window, then toggle Create a Share link at the bottom

Export to file

Click Export to file, then wait for the process to finish

This will:

  • Save the video as an MP4 in your computer
  • Automatically upload a copy of the video online, to your Cloud Gallery.
  • Instantly generate a secure, shareable link
Only people with the link can access your video. It's private by default and not publicly searchable.

Sharing Options

Once uploaded, your video can be shared as:

  • A direct link
  • An embeddable player for websites and blogs
  • A viewable link in emails or messages
If you'd rather upload and share a video online without saving it as MP4 locally, just use Quick Share

Important Notes

  • This feature works only with MP4 exports and is not available for GIFs yet
  • The online video quality is based on the export settings you choose
  • Great for tutorials, product demos, or quick reviews that need fast distribution
