Deep Linking¶
Deep linking allows users to share links to specific pages, content elements and modules from within TYPO3's backend.
For example, a user could be writing content for a new page that is about to be published. Using deep links, they can share a link to the page they are working on or even share a link to the actual content element that contains their work and send it to another member of the team for review.
Sharing links¶
To share a link, look for the Share icon located at the top right hand side of any page in the backend.

URLs and deep links¶
When creating links to anything in the backend, it is recommended that the Share button is used to generate the link. Copying the URL from the browser is not recommended.
