Share a Journey document with the families connected to the child. Families must be enabled for your service, with at least one family member who can receive shared content.

Stop sharing

Reopen the panel using Shared and select Stop sharing. Wait for it to finish. This stops sharing the document; it does not remove a family member’s access to the child.

If no family can receive the document, use Manage family sharing or ask your centre administrator to check access.
