Sometimes, you may receive a MetaSleuth analysis result shared by someone else, such as this link. In MetaSleuth, these links are referred to as Shared links. They allow users to view and edit the canvas associated with the shared analysis.
A shared canvas is essentially a snapshot of the analysis results provided by the sharer. When you open a shared link, you see the state of the entire canvas as it was when the link was created. You can click on the edges and nodes to view details, as well as check the sharer's notes. However, keep in mind that this is just one analysis result and does not represent the complete picture.
Clicking on an address node will display details such as the address label, associated tags, risk score, asset balance, and on-chain interactions. It's important to note that the asset transfers shown are only those selected by the sharer to be displayed on the canvas. To view a more comprehensive set of asset transfers, you will need to unlock the canvas for re-analysis.
Clicking on the edge will show you the asset transfer between the two nodes. Similarly, only the content selected by the sharer will be displayed here.
If you find the shared content valuable and want to continue your analysis, you can unlock the canvas for editing and then save it. Your edits will not sync back to the original sharer.
Unlocking is straightforward—just click on the "Start Editing" button in the top left corner.
Generally, the unlocking process is smooth, but sometimes you may encounter a prompt asking if you want to keep some of the sharer's private tags. If you're an experienced MetaSleuth user, you might want to consider which tags are valuable to retain. If you're a beginner, just select "Import"!
