Direct sharing hands a review to specific people on your project — a one-off, person-to-person share, separate from the step-by-step automated workflows route. Sharing is tied to your role: Creative Reviewers, Curators and Workspace Managers can share a review; Viewers can watch but not pass reviews on.
You can start a share from a few places:
In the Screening Room, open the more options menu on the review's card and choose Share.
In the player, open the more options menu in the header and choose Share Review.
In All Reviews, use the Share button on the review's row.
In the review drawer, use the Share button.
From there:
Search for people by name or email and select them. The search only returns users who already have access to the project — if someone doesn't show up, they likely don't have access yet.
Click Share.
The review reaches each recipient right across the app — it shows up in All Reviews, in their Screening Room, and in their Focus — surfaced most prominently as New in the Screening Room and the Focus queue.
You can only share with people who are already on your project. When a review is shared, your production's security policies — including DRM and watermarking — apply to everyone who receives it.
What you can't share yet
Drafts. A draft stays private to its creator until it's published — the Share button stays disabled until then.
From the Portal. Contributors submitting content through the Rush Portal don't have direct sharing available to them.
Coming Soon: Both of these are changing - drafts will become shareable, and direct sharing will open up to Portal contributors.
