# Share a pinboard with a client

> Send a link, let the client comment and approve in their browser, and pick their responses up in your Inbox.

Sharing is the point of a pinboard. The client opens a link in their
browser — no account, no app, no PDF that is out of date the moment you
send it.

## Share it

**Shared** in the pinboard toolbar creates the link and manages who has it.

Send the link however you normally talk to the client. It stays live —
anything you change on the board is there next time they open it, so there
is no re-sending.

## What the client can do

* **Comment on an item** — Anything specific: *Can we change fabric?*, *I
  like this mirror!*, *dark one*. The comment attaches to that pin, not to
  the board as a whole.
* **Approve an item** — A clear yes on a specific piece, recorded against
  it.

Commented items carry a badge on the board with the number of comments, so
you can see at a glance where the conversation is.

## Where their replies go

Everything lands in your **Inbox**, newest first, labelled with the
pinboard and the item — *A client approved: Ondé Sofa*, *A client
commented: Can we change fabric?*

Selecting a row shows the item image, the comment and the date, with a link
back to the pinboard.

## Turning approvals into a schedule

An approval is a decision. Add the approved product to the project's FF\&E
schedule and set its status to **Approved**, and it flows into ordering
from there — the project Overview will start counting it under *Ready to
order*.

Pins linked to library products make this quicker, because the product
already exists with its price and vendor.

<Tip>
  Send one room at a time. A client asked to approve forty items in one
  sitting approves none of them.
