Chat Sharing

Chat Sharing gives users the ability to share Glean conversations with each other or the entire organization. This page covers the admin controls and data-handling behavior for Chat Sharing. For how end users share chats, see the Chat Sharing user guide.

Manage your beta rollout

As part of the private beta, you can turn Chat Sharing off or on for your organization. If chat sharing is turned off, any chats that were shared previously will no longer be accessible and links will return "chat not found" errors.

Retention

Glean conversations are retained for 30 days. As a result, shared chats are also only available for 30 days after their initial creation.

Permissions and data access

  • Shared conversations honor existing document permissions. Recipients only see citations for documents they already have access to, and sharing a conversation does not automatically share permissions for any cited or linked documents.
  • Only the original uploader or users with access to the shared chat session can download user-uploaded files. Files are not publicly accessible, even if the chat session was previously marked public.
