You can share sites, locations, POIs, Site Model entities, custom locations, measurements, and 3D model information. A site can also be shared outside NavVis IVION if it's marked public. See Make content public.

A location share URL captures your current position and view orientation. It does not include any POI or Site Model entity you have selected.

Share a POI

Open the POI's details panel and click Share. When someone opens the link, their 3D view moves to a position and orientation where the POI is visible, and its details panel opens. Clicking Share also moves your own view there, so you can preview what they'll see.
