Share links

Publish a read only copy of a dashboard at a secret address, pick what it shows, and take it back at any time.

A share link is a page anybody can open without an account: your numbers, none of your controls. Use one for a client, an investor, a teammate who does not need a seat, or a public "open metrics" page.

Open the site, then Settings, then the Share card. Only an owner of the organization can turn sharing on or off.

Creating one gives you an address like this.

The token is 32 characters of randomness, and it is the whole credential: there is no password and no sign in. Anybody holding the address can read the page, so treat it as a secret and rotate it when it stops being one.

You can have up to ten links on one site, each with its own name, its own options and its own token. The name is for you. It never appears on the public page.

Choose what it publishes

Every link shows the headline tiles and the chart. Four more cards are yours to turn on or off: Pages, Sources, Where people are and Devices. Turn all four off for a link that shows only the tiles and the chart.

Two switches sit beside them.

  • The online count. Shows how many people are on the site right now. It publishes the number and nothing else: never who they are, never where they are, never what they are reading.
  • Revenue. Off by default. It turns on the Revenue tile and the revenue breakdowns, and never the individual orders.

What a reader can and cannot do

A reader can change the range between 7 days, 30 days and 90 days, and read whichever cards you enabled. That is the whole surface.

They cannot sign in, filter anything, or open a single visitor. Recent visits, individual clicks, goals, funnels and the AI crawler tab are absent from a shared page in every case, whatever the link was configured with. The page never carries the site's id or its tracking key either, so there is nothing on it to reuse elsewhere.

The page says what it is. A Public, read only badge sits in the header, and the footer states that you chose to publish it, that it is aggregate numbers only, and that you can switch it off at any time. It is served with noindex, so search engines leave it alone, and it is rate limited, so the address cannot be used to hammer your dashboard.

One more rule is worth knowing: a link only answers while the organization's plan is active. If a subscription lapses, the page returns the same 404 an unknown link gets, and it comes back on its own when the plan does. The token is not thrown away, because a lapse is not a decision to stop sharing.

Replacing and deleting

Both live on the link's own row, and both take effect immediately.

  • Replace link gives the link a new token and keeps its name and options. The old address stops working at once, and so does a badge embedded with it.
  • Delete link removes it. Anybody still holding the address gets a page that does not exist.

There is no grace period on either, by design. Sharing that cannot be taken back instantly is not sharing you control.

The badge

Each link can also render a small live badge for your own site, linking back to the shared page.

<a href="https://usepeeko.com/s/YOUR_TOKEN"><img src="https://usepeeko.com/s/YOUR_TOKEN/badge" alt="742 people this week, measured by Peeko"></a>

The badge is an SVG that reads 742 people this week · Peeko, counted over the last seven days and cached for a few minutes. The settings card prints the snippet with your token already in it, so copy it from there rather than typing it.

Two things to know. The badge never shows your site's name, only the number. And the alt text carries the number as it was on the day you copied the snippet, while the image behind it keeps updating, so edit the alt text to something timeless if that matters to you.

Deleting or replacing the link stops the badge with it.
