I would like to share a link to a dataset hosted on a juicebox. However, when I copy the url link from my file browser it is tied to my container, and the person trying to open the link does not have access to it. How should I share a link to something stored in the `shared/` folder? ---

Hi, there are jupyterhub provides a [user-redirect](https://jupyterhub.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/urls.html) option which allows the user to access the data on their own server. To utilise this, replace in the url for the data you want to share, replace `.../user//...` with `.../hub/user-redirect/...`. Alternatively, in the jupyterlab interface there is the option to “Copy Shareable link” (however this is not available in the file browser) ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/orangeqs/original/1X/e01e7ab8be8c62c65a230175f85ec94a3dbba52f.png) Hope this helps! ---
