Sharing & Exporting Maps

You can ask other users to review your work by sharing a Milkymap with them. You’ll be able to share it in different formats (through a Sharable link, Excel, PDF, or Image file). You can add a personalized message, where you can highlight specific points you’d like the receiver to review. Sharing is only available for users in your organisation’s Milkymap account. Find out more about sharing in this article.


You can also share your work with others by exporting your Milkymaps. This will allow you to also share the file with people outside of your organisation’s Milkymap Galaxy account. Exporting a Milkymap will create an offline copy of it. Exporting Milkymaps is described in this article.

Using Comments to Receive Feedback

Using Milkymap, you can also generate feedback from other users within your organisation directly through the platform.

  1. Go to the Milkymap you’d like to receive comments on by clicking it. You can only request comments for Milkymaps you own.

  2. Press the text bubble icon in the top menu bar

    Select the user or users you’d like to receive comments from.
