# Share a bot's work
Source: https://docs.aden.space/docs/help/work-together/chat/share-a-bot-thread

Ask a bot to do a job from any chat and send a link so others can follow the work live.
Ask one of your team's bots to do a job with the person you're talking to. The bot works in its own thread, and you send them a link to follow along. Your other threads with that bot stay private.

## Ask a bot [#ask-a-bot]

1. Open a chat's menu and choose **Ask a bot**. On the phone it's in the composer, and ⌘K has it too.
2. Pick the bot and say what it should do. The chat you asked from helps the bot, but the link never shows it.
3. The link lands in your message, ready to send.

In the desktop app you can do the same in WhatsApp, Instagram and your other connected chats: type / and choose **Ask a bot**.

## Follow along [#follow-along]

In Aden, the link shows as a live card with the bot, the task and what it is doing now. Anywhere else it opens a page that updates as the bot works.

## Let others reply [#let-others-reply]

Turn on **People with the link can reply** so others can write to the bot in that thread. They need an Aden account.

## Stop sharing [#stop-sharing]

The link button in the thread's header shows the link, switches replies on or off, and stops sharing. A stopped link stops working for everyone.
