Get Shareable Link

Generate a direct shareable link from your Gist URL for easy sharing. This option provides a simple URL that can be shared via email, chat, or social media without embedding. The link can be opened directly in a browser to view the presentation.

Working with GitHub Gists

For the embed and shareable link options, you need to save your presentation data to a GitHub Gist. Here are some helpful tips:

Using Multiple Files in a Single Gist

If your Gist contains multiple valid Inscribed files, the system will automatically detect them and display a dropdown menu for you to select which file to use.

Direct File Links

You can link directly to a specific file in a Gist using the filename parameter in the URL. For example:

https://gist.github.com/username/gistid?filename=presentation.ins

When a Gist contains multiple files with valid Inscribed data, the system automatically adds this parameter to specify which file to use. This allows you to share a direct link to a specific presentation within a multi-file Gist.
