Q: Can recipients respond to shared conversations? A: No, shared links are read-only. Recipients can view the conversation but cannot add messages or interact with the AI.
Q: What happens if I delete a conversation after sharing it? A: The shared link will no longer be accessible, and any user which navigates to that link will be served a page stating “Shared link not found”.
