if you have the share privilege listed, you will have the share function

Begin by navigating to the patient you'd like to share
next select share on the right side

if the recipient is already a created user within your Apteryx site you can use the option 'User'
if the recipient is not an Apteryx user already, you can select temp user to create them a temporary account

Under share content you can restrict their access to view the entire patient profile, or just the study. Next, create a username for them. After that, type in the recipient's email address
you can check the box for 'Allow user to download images' if you want the recipient to be able to download a copy of the shared images off of your Apteryx. Finally, set the expiration date of their profile and select share

The recipient will receive an email describing that someone from your Apteryx site has shared access to images.

Make sure the recipient checks their spam and junk folders in case the email is filtered out of their inbox
