Sharing an image link

Sharing an Image Link is a great way to share your wireframes with folks, without the need to grant them access to the actual project.

You can embed the Image Link in external webpages, or applications that support direct image links, and keep your clients or company updated on the progress of a project.

To create an Image Link, select the dedicated option available in the navigator panel's context menu for any wireframe and click on "Create Image Link".

An Image Link will be created and copied to your computer's clipboard, allowing you to share it anywhere you want. What's more, the image will automatically update if you make changes to the wireframe and close the editor.

If you need to copy the link again (or manually update the image), you can click on the wireframe's link icon from your navigator.

Once clicked, the link will again be copied to your computer's clipboard.

You can delete an Image Link at any time from the dialog available in the navigator panel's context menu. Deleting it will generate an error message for anyone that tries to use/share the Image Link.

In Balsamiq for Confluence Cloud, you can use the Image Link to embed a copy of the entire project on a separate Confluence page, allowing stakeholders to review and comment on it, as if they were using the Balsamiq Editor. To do this, add a new Balsamiq Macro to the page, and you'll be presented with an option to create a new project, or embed a project with an image link.

Clicking on Image Link (and then pasting the link) will place a copy of the project on that page. This version of the project will also update if you update the original wireframe.

Once created, you can use the Image Link to embed a wireframe to another Jira issue by using the dedicated option in the Balsamiq Panel.

Once the wireframe is linked, you can review and comment it in full screen, edit the wireframe or remove it from the Jira issue.

This Image Link will be automatically updated with any changes made to the original wireframe.
