How to Share a File in Burai (Native Share vs External Share)

Updated today

Introduction

Burai’s Share button offers two options: Native Share for Microsoft sharing, and External Share for PDF snapshot sharing.

Steps

  1. Open the file.

  2. Click Share.

  3. Choose one option:

    • Native Share (opens the Microsoft Share modal)

    • External Share (creates/edits a PDF snapshot share)

Notes / Tips

  • For file types that don’t support External Share, clicking Share takes you directly to Native Share.

  • External Share is available on both document versions and Working Copies. If you share from a Working Copy, the snapshot is tied to that Working Copy.

Summary / Next Steps

Use Native Share for internal collaboration on the live file, and External Share when you need a controlled PDF snapshot experience.
