Can someone without an account view a public reconciliation report?

Last updated on Mar 17, 2026

Short Answer: Yes — when a report is set to Public, anyone with the link can view it. The public page shows the report title and a 'Download report' button.

Answer

PreRequisites

  1. The report owner has set Report access to Public in the Share dialog.

  2. You have the public report link.

Steps

  1. Open the public report link in any browser.
    You land on a page showing the report title (e.g., Bank reconciliation report), a 'Download report' button, and the Recon ID.

  2. Click 'Download report' if you want to download the file.
    The report downloads directly without requiring sign-in.

Troubleshooting

  1. Public link prompts you to sign in.

    Likely Cause:

    • The report is still set to Private, not Public.

    Action:

    • Ask the report owner to change Report access to Public in the Share dialog.
    • Request them to share the updated public link again.

Note: The public page may show options like 'Sign in' or 'Start for free', but login is not required to view or download the report when access is set to Public.
