* To gather creatives from a specific creator without providing access to them in the workspace, you have to create a collect link.
* To create a collect link, navigate to the preferred board and click on the three-dot icon right next to the board name.
* Select the "**collect file**", and generate a link to copy and share it with any creator online.

* Click on "**Generate**" or "**Update**" to update the link to copy and share it with anyone
* **Make Link available**: If enabled the link will be accessible and if disabled, the link will not work for the viewer

## How to upload in a collect link?

* Anyone using the collect file link will be redirected to an upload window.
* Files uploaded through this link will be stored in the corresponding boards where the collect file link was generated.
