Sharing a note


Notes can be shared in and out of the meeting, either from the Notes Dashboard or from within the note itself. 

When you share your notes, you can also set the user’s permission to view, edit, or become a co-owner. When enabled by an admin, notes can also be shared with anyone in your organization or with external users.
