# Deeplinks

> Create direct links to documents, pages, or specific blocks that open directly in the Craft app.

## What are Deeplinks?

Deeplinks create a URL that can directly link to a document, page, or even a specific block inside the Craft app itself – clicking on them from anywhere on your system should open the Craft app to that point.

They have the form `craftdocs://open...` and will work on iOS/iPadOS/macOS. They can be shared between anyone who has access to edit that space.

Deeplinks are typically used to connect other apps back into Craft – for example, a Things project can have a link in the notes section that opens the Craft document you're keeping notes on that project in. They are not to be confused with Secret Links, which open a page on the web for your document for viewing/commenting, not in the Craft editor.

<Info title="Platform Availability">
  Deeplinks are only available for Craft on macOS, iOS, and iPad.

## Getting Deeplinks

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="macOS">
    Deeplinks are available in the **File** menu on macOS.

    If at the time you activate this you've got a particular block highlighted (or you're editing that block), then the Deeplink will point to that. Otherwise, the link will point to the page/document you're looking at.

## Using Deeplinks

Deeplinks can be used pretty much anywhere that highlights links. For example:

* Copying and pasting the Deeplink URL into the URL bar of your browser will open Craft
* Placing the link in a Stickies note will allow you to quickly access the document from there
* You can Slack your co-workers or Message your contacts the Deeplink URL, and as long as they have access to that space, they'll be able to click on it

<Warning title="Access Required">
  Deeplinks only work for people who have access to edit the space. Make sure your collaborators are members of the space before sharing deeplinks with them.
</Warning>
