**Note:** Sharing of custom dashboards, report templates, and widgets must be enabled by your administrator. For more information, see [Manage access to objects](../../../onboard-cortex-xsiam/post-deployment/manage-user-roles-and-access-management/manage-access-to-objects).
By default, all new custom dashboards and report templates are **Restricted** and visible only to you (the Owner). Once created, you can share them with specific users or groups, or make it **Public** to all authorized users.
Widget sharing behaves differently to dashboards and reports, for more information see [Access to widgets](../access-and-visibility-for-dashboards-and-reports/access-to-widgets).
**Open share settings**
In the **Dashboard Manager** or the **Report Templates** tab, locate your item, right-click its name, and select **Share**.
**Update your visibility settings**
* **To share globally:** Under **General access**, change the setting to **Public** so all authorized users in your organization can view it.
* **To share selectively:** Keep the status as **Restricted**, add specific users or groups, and assign them a role (**Viewer** or **Editor**).
**Save your changes**
Click **Share** to apply your settings.
