# Sharing flows
<a name="sharing-flows"></a>

When you share a flow, you give others permission to view and run it, or to collaborate on it as co-owners.

## Sharing options
<a name="sharing-options"></a>

You can share a flow in three ways:
+ **With individuals** — Share with specific people using their email addresses.
+ **With groups** — Share with pre-defined groups in your organization (for example, departments or project teams).
+ **With everyone** — Make the flow available to all users in your Amazon Quick Flows instance.

Depending on your organization's settings, sharing may require approval review. For more information, see [Approval review](approval-review.md).

<a name="permission-levels"></a>

### Viewer
<a name="viewer-permissions"></a>

Viewers can run the flow and view results, but cannot edit, share, or delete it. Viewers only see the published version.

### Co-owner
<a name="co-owner-permissions"></a>

Co-owners can edit the flow, share it with others, manage permissions, publish changes, and access draft versions. Co-owners cannot remove the original owner. Only one person can edit at a time.
