Updated on: 6 April 2026
Learn how to share processes and export them for review, feedback or use in documents.
Before you share or export
Before sharing a process, check that it is clear and up to date.
Make sure:
- step names and descriptions are easy to understand
- roles, systems and information are correct
- the process reflects how the work actually happens
Share a process
Sharing is best when people need to view or collaborate on the latest version online.
Use sharing when:
- the audience already has access to ShiftX – see Request access to Ardoq ShiftX
- the process may change
- people need to explore the process in detail
To share a process:
- open the process in
- copy the webpage link
- send the link to your audience
Any updates you make will appear automatically through the same link.
Export a process
Exporting a process lets you create a fixed copy of what you see on screen. This is useful when you need an image for review, feedback, documents, presentations or offline use.
There are two ways to export a process, depending on whether it is a draft or published.
Export a draft process
Use this when you want a quick visual to review or share for feedback.
Follow these steps:
- open the process in draft view
- select the three dots to the right of Publish
- select Export image
- choose a file format, PNG or SVG
- select Export file
The file is saved to your downloads folder. The export shows exactly what is on screen, including layout and focus.
Export a published process
Use this when you need a confirmed snapshot of a finished process.
Follow these steps:
- open the published process
- select the three dots in the top right‑hand panel
- select Export
- choose Export as Image or Export as JSON
The export shows exactly what is on screen at the time of export.
Embed a process
Embedding lets you show a live process inside another webpage, such as guidance or training.
Use embed when:
- you want people to explore the process without leaving the page
- the process should stay up to date automatically
Only published processes can be embedded.
To embed a process:
- open the published process
- select the three dots in the top right‑hand panel
- select Embed process
- copy either the Embedded URL or the iFrame code
Choosing whether to share, embed or export
- share for live viewing and collaboration
- export for fixed copies
- embed for live processes inside other pages
Choose the option that best fits how the process will be used.
