How to Share a Saved View with Your Team
How to Share a Saved View with Your Team
Section titled “How to Share a Saved View with Your Team”Saved views let you preserve a specific combination of filters, columns, and sort order so you do not have to set them up every time. Sharing a view makes it available to your entire team or specific members.
Creating a View to Share
Section titled “Creating a View to Share”If you have not created a saved view yet:
- Navigate to any entity list (e.g., Opportunities, Contacts)
- Set up your preferred filters (e.g., Stage = Proposal, Owner = my team)
- Adjust the columns — show, hide, or reorder them
- Set the sort order (e.g., close date ascending)
- Choose the view type — List, Kanban, Calendar, or Cards
- Click Save View
- Give it a descriptive name (e.g., “Proposals pending this month”)
Sharing the View
Section titled “Sharing the View”- Open the saved view you want to share
- Click the Share icon (or open the view’s settings menu)
- Choose the sharing option:
- Everyone — All users in the workspace can see and use this view
- Specific roles — Only users with selected permission profiles can access it
- Click Save
Shared views appear in the view dropdown for all users who have access.
What Gets Shared
Section titled “What Gets Shared”When you share a view, team members get:
- Filters — The same filter conditions you set up
- Column layout — The same columns in the same order
- Sort order — The same sort settings
- View type — List, Kanban, Calendar, or Cards
What is NOT shared:
- Your personal data — Filters like “Owner = me” resolve to each user’s own records, not yours
- Edit access — Only the view creator (or an admin) can modify the shared view
Managing Shared Views
Section titled “Managing Shared Views”- Edit — Update the view’s filters or columns, and the changes apply for everyone
- Unshare — Remove sharing to make it private again
- Delete — Removing a shared view removes it for all users
- Use “Owner = me” filters — These adapt automatically for each user, making the view universally useful
- Name views clearly — “Active deals - Kanban” is better than “My view 2”
- Create role-specific views — A manager’s view might show all records; a rep’s view might show only their own
