Use a Clone Deep Link

View as Markdown

Overview

AI Workbench provides clone deep links to a published project on GitHub or GitLab.

If someone with AI Workbench installed clicks a deep link, they are prompted to clone the project. You can use this to directly share projects or to links to them on websites or in documents.

Deep links do not grant access to the repository - Intended users need read access.

The users’ permissions are based on what you’ve granted them. The deep link does not changes this.

  • Public projects: Anyone with the link can clone the project
  • Private projects: Users must be granted read permissions to clone the project
