Routine Sharing & Discovery

Share routines with your team using a link, preview them when signed out, and install shared routines into your own workspace.

Overview

Routine sharing lets you distribute proven automations across teams without copying configuration by hand.

With sharing enabled, you can:

Publish a share link for a routine
Preview routine details before installing
Install shared routines into another account/workspace
Manage visibility by turning sharing on or off

Open a routine in Town
Choose Share
Enable sharing and copy the link
Send the link to collaborators

When disabled, the link no longer allows new installs.

Installing a shared routine

Open the shared routine link
Review routine scope and behavior
Click Install
Configure account scope, mode, and any user-specific settings

After install, the routine appears in your routine list and can be customized like any other routine.

Signed-out preview

Shared links support preview even when not signed in, so teammates can review what the routine does before authenticating and installing.

What gets shared

Shared routines include the routine configuration needed to run in the destination account. User-specific account connections and permissions remain specific to the installer.

Always review tools, triggers, and mode before enabling a shared routine in production.

Best practices

Share routines with clear names and short descriptions
Keep instructions concise and outcome-oriented
Validate behavior in a test account before broad rollout
Use approval-required mode first for higher-risk actions
