Sharing your projects
Preview links, collaborators, development previews, handing a project to another account, and making a project public.
There are five ways to share a Floot project: pass on the preview link your AI assistant gave you, add collaborators, send a development preview, send the whole project to another account, or make the project public.
Most sharing controls live on floot.com
Your AI assistant can hand out a preview link, but it has no tool for adding collaborators, sending a project, or changing visibility. For those, open the project on floot.com and click the project name dropdown in the top-left, next to the Floot logo. Every option on this page except the preview link lives in that menu.
Three of these need a paid plan
Adding collaborators, sending a development preview, and sending a project all require a paid plan, and the last two are shown only to the project owner. Sharing a preview link and making a project public work on any plan.
Share the preview link your AI gave you
Every preview link the Floot connector returns already carries a view-only token in its query string. This is the normal way to show work in progress to someone who does not need an account.
- It opens with no login, so it works in a phone browser or an in-app webview
- It is scoped to one project, and expires after 7 days
- The holder can look at the project and interact with the running app, but cannot change files or touch your account
- It can be revoked if you share it too widely
- Share it exactly as your assistant returned it — stripping the token turns the link into a sign-in prompt
- Lost it, or the 7 days ran out? Ask your assistant for the preview link again and it mints a fresh one
You are not downgraded by your own link
Opening a tokenized preview link while signed in as the owner still gives you full edit and publish rights — the page prefers a real session when it finds one.
Add collaborators
Invite others to view or edit your project while you keep ownership. This needs a paid plan, and only the project owner can add or remove people. There is no MCP tool for it — collaborators are managed on floot.com.
- 1
Open the project menu
Click the project name dropdown in the top-left, next to the Floot logo, then Collaborators.
- 2
Enter their email
They must already have a Floot account — Floot will not invite someone who has not signed up, and returns an error asking you to have them sign up first.
- 3
They're in
Access is granted right away, and Floot emails them at that address. The subject line reads "<your name> added you to <your project> on Floot", and the message has an Open Project button.
That link opens the project on floot.com under their own account.
What to know
A collaborator who wants to work on the project from their own MCP client needs their own paid Floot plan — opening a shared project over MCP is refused otherwise — and their build actions come out of their own daily allowance, not yours. Image generation is the exception: it always spends the project owner's credits.
- You can remove a collaborator at any time in the same dialog, which revokes their access immediately.
- Only one person can make changes at a time. Others need to refresh the page to see new changes.
- A collaborator who opens the dialog sees "Only project owners can manage collaborators" — they can edit the project but not change who else has access.
- Collaborators get full access to the project's data and integrations, so only invite people you trust with them.
Send a development preview
Show a client or a tester what you are building without giving them the project. Open the project name dropdown in the top-left, then Send Development Preview. This needs a paid plan and is shown only to the project owner.
- Up to 20 recipients at a time
- Each recipient gets their own link by email
- To open it, they must enter their own email address to verify who they are
- Links expire after 7 days
- If an email fails to deliver, you can copy that person's link and send it yourself — they still have to verify their address
Send project to another account
Copy a project to a different Floot account. This needs a paid plan and is shown only to the project owner.
When to use it
- Handing a finished project off to a client
- Moving a project to a team or company account
- Consolidating projects under one account
How it works
- 1
Open Send project
Click the project name dropdown in the top-left, then Send project.
- 2
Enter the destination email
The recipient does not need a Floot account until they accept. Optionally add a message, or charge them credits for the project — the smallest charge Floot accepts is 6,000 credits.
- 3
They accept or decline
Floot emails a link. If they accept, they receive a full copy — code, database, and integrations — but not your API keys, which they will set up themselves.
- 4
What can block an accept
The recipient needs a free project slot — free accounts are capped at 5 projects — and, if you set a credit charge, enough credits to cover it. If either check fails the accept is refused and the invitation stays pending, so this is worth checking before you go looking for a bug.
- 5
Credits change hands
If you set a credit charge, the recipient pays it and you receive that amount minus a 5,000-credit fee — so at the 6,000-credit minimum, 1,000 credits reach you.
You keep your copy
Sending a project copies it. Your original project stays in your account, untouched.
Make a project public
Let others view your project's source code and its activity record — the running log of the work done in the project, including everything your assistant did — and use it as a starting point for their own. Making a project public is free on any plan.
- 1
Open Project Settings
Click the project name dropdown in the top-left, then Project Settings.
- 2
Turn on Make project public
Under Project Visibility, turn on the Make project public switch. There is no list of visibility values to pick from — it is one toggle, and you can turn it back off at any time.
What happens
- Others can view your source code and that activity record, but they cannot edit your project
- Other Floot users can duplicate it as a starting point — duplicating someone else's project requires a paid plan on both sides, so this only works while you are on a paid plan too
- Your published app URL is unchanged — this affects the project, not the live app
- You keep full ownership and can go private again whenever you want
When to use it
- Sharing a template or example with the community
- Open-source work you want others to learn from
- Showcasing a build in your portfolio
Which option should I choose?
| Scenario | Recommended option |
|---|---|
| Showing someone what you just built, right now | Share the preview link your AI gave you |
| Working together on a project | Add collaborators |
| Client needs to watch progress | Add collaborators |
| Client or tester should look but not own or edit | Send a development preview |
| Handing a finished project to a client | Send project |
| Moving a project to another account you own | Send project |

Private by default
All projects — including free ones — are private until you change the setting. See Security and data.
