Sway presentation

Question

Hi, I was very excited to create my first sway but when I share the link (copy and paste in an email), the sway presentation opens up in the edit format with the cards, not presentation format ready to play. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Everyone who opens a Sway uses the same link.  Depending on your permissions to the Sway, it will either open in edit or view mode.  To test this, copy the URL to your Sway and then either sign out or view it in an in private window and it will open in view mode.

Hope this helps!

Have you seen this getting started page:

https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Getting-Started-with-Sway-2076C468-63F4-4A89-AE5F-424796714A8A

It leads to this sharing page: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Share-your-Sway-1cf853b8-ef7e-46b0-b704-003e58d28998

At the bottom it tells how to grant, and revoke, editing privilege.
