# Sharing incidents

You can share any incident as a public link. This is useful for communicating outages to customers or embedding status updates in your docs.

## Enable public sharing

Public sharing is off by default. To turn it on, go to [Alerts under organisation settings](https://app.spike.sh/settings/general/alerts) and enable it for your organisation.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you disable public sharing in organisation settings, all existing public incident links become private immediately.
