How to Share Photos in CompanyCam

Need to send photos to a customer? We have a few ways for you to share photos, depending on what details you're looking to share!

Updated this week

Before you start

  • Sharing Gallery and Timeline links is not available on Basic. If you'd like to add Gallery and Timeline link sharing to your CompanyCam account, you'll want to upgrade your plan. This can be done in Billing under Pricing Plans.

Please Note

Gallery Links can not be disabled on the User's end. If you were looking to deactivate your Gallery Link, please reach out to our Support team.
