  You can share a temporary link to an unpublished entry by clicking on the "Share" button, right next to the "Live Preview" button.
  
  **Craft 2:**
  
  [!["Share" button in Craft 2](https://i.sstatic.net/lRwDZ.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/lRwDZ.png)
  
  **Craft 3:**
  
  [!["Share" button in Craft 3](https://i.sstatic.net/UOBVJ.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/UOBVJ.png)
  
  This creates a link with a token that will expire automatically. The length of time that the token lasts for can be controlled with the [defaultTokenDuration](https://craftcms.com/docs/config-settings#defaultTokenDuration) config setting.
