Share a Copilot HTML Page or Quiz Without Sign-In

Copilot wrote a quiz, a small game, or a report page, and you want students, parents, or people outside your organization to open it without signing in. When you use Copilot's Share chat link, recipients must sign in with a Microsoft account—or a work or school account in your organization—before they can view the snapshot. If you built an interactive app in a code-enabled Copilot Page using the Preview toggle, its link opens in Loop for colleagues in your organization, and publishing an HTML page in SharePoint only makes it visible to people who already have permission to view the page.

This page covers what Copilot's own sharing gives the other person, how to get the HTML out of Copilot (or find the index.html file in your project folder if you used GitHub Copilot in VS Code), and how to preview it. Then it walks through 4 steps to turn that file into a link, ways to send it to students in Teams, by email, or with a QR code, and what runs on the published page.

What happens when you share a Copilot link

Copilot has a few ways to share a page or a chat, and Microsoft's support pages explain who can open each one. A shared Copilot conversation is a snapshot that always requires the person opening it to sign in—with a work or school account in your organization if you shared it from a work or school account, or with a personal Microsoft account if you shared it from a personal one. A code-enabled Copilot Page lets you preview runnable code side-by-side in Copilot Chat, and sharing its link gives colleagues access to that single page in Loop; Microsoft's page on sharing Copilot Pages does not mention access for people outside your organization. In Microsoft 365 schools, Copilot Chat (which includes Copilot Pages) is available for students aged 13 and older only after an administrator takes additional steps to enable it. If your organization is in the Microsoft Frontier program and uses SharePoint HTML pages, publishing an .html page only makes it visible to people who already have permission to view that SharePoint page, and SharePoint runs the HTML in a sandboxed iframe that blocks fetch requests and allows only five Microsoft-managed CDN libraries (Chart.js, Mermaid, React, Fluent UI, and Babylon).

If you need a link that opens without a Microsoft sign-in—for parents, younger students, or anyone outside your organization—paste the HTML from Copilot into the upload box (using Paste code) or drop the .html file from VS Code, then sign up and click Publish. On the free Public setting, anyone with your yourpage.convika.page link or its QR code can open the page in their browser without an account or password, and your quiz or game scripts—plus any https:// CDN libraries—run on every plan, including Free.

How to get your HTML code out of Copilot

Before you copy your quiz, game, or page, make sure Copilot has put everything into a single HTML file rather than splitting the CSS or JavaScript into separate blocks or files.

Paste this prompt into the chat first so you get one complete block of code, then follow the step below for where you are using Copilot:

Please give me the complete page as one HTML file with all CSS and JavaScript inside it, using https:// addresses for any images and fetching no data from other websites.

• Copilot Chat: When Copilot shows your code in a code block in the chat, copy all of it. If the CSS or JavaScript is in separate blocks or files, ask Copilot to put everything into one HTML file first, then copy the whole block.
• Copilot Page: When you sign in to microsoft365.com with a work or school (Entra ID) account that has SharePoint or OneDrive storage—even without a Microsoft 365 Copilot license—and ask Copilot Chat for an app using words like app, interactive, or UI, Copilot automatically generates a code-enabled Copilot Page side-by-side where you can use the Preview toggle to interact with your app. Because Microsoft's documentation only describes the Preview toggle that runs the code inside the page and does not state how to view or copy a Copilot Page's code directly, ask Copilot in the chat to give you the full HTML of the page in one code block, then copy it.
• GitHub Copilot in VS Code: Because GitHub Copilot works directly on the files in your project folder, the page it creates is already saved on your computer as a file such as index.html.

How to preview HTML code from Copilot before you share it

To see how your quiz, game, or report looks right away, use the Preview toggle in Copilot Pages, which runs the code inside the page. If you already copied the code or saved an .html file, you can also open it in Convika's free HTML viewer. It runs the file or pasted code directly in your own browser without uploading it, so only you see it.

If you use the upload box on this page, the preview link works for 3 minutes without an account and shows the page with scripts and forms turned off. That makes it handy for checking the layout on your phone, though a quiz or game won't be playable there yet. Don't send the preview link to students or parents, since it expires—publish the page first so the scripts run and the link doesn't expire.

How to turn Copilot's HTML into a link anyone can open

Turn your Copilot HTML quiz, game, or report page into a live link that students, parents, or coworkers can open without signing in.

1. Paste the code or drop the file in the box

In the upload box on this page, drop a single .html or .htm file (up to 2 MB) using Upload a file, or switch to Paste code and paste the HTML Copilot gave you. Click Get my preview link. You don't need an account or an email to get the preview, which stays active for 3 minutes. (Convika takes one HTML file rather than a folder or a ZIP, so any images need to be built into the file or point to https:// addresses.)

2. Keep the page and check that it runs

Scripts and forms are turned off in the temporary preview, so an interactive quiz or game won't run there yet. Click Keep this page — free, no card and sign up. Your page moves into your account exactly as you uploaded it, and its scripts—along with any libraries loaded from an https:// CDN—now run so you can test it properly.

3. Publish it

On the page's screen, click Publish. In the confirmation, choose Public, the free choice (the Free plan includes 1 published page and 10,000 page views a month with a small Convika bar at the bottom). Anyone with the link can open the page without a password or a Microsoft or school account, and it may show up in search results and in Convika's gallery. To keep it out of both, choose Private link (Pro or pass) instead. If you prefer to set a password, choose Only people with the password—a Pro feature ($12 a month) where visitors type the password once and stay signed in on that browser for 7 days.

4. Copy the link and send it

Your page is now live at an address like yourpage.convika.page, which stays the same until you click Unpublish. Free includes 10,000 page views a month across all your pages. Click Copy next to the Live URL to share the address in Teams, an email, or your class portal (link to it directly so it opens in its own tab, as published pages can't be embedded in a frame). You can also click Show QR code next to it to display a QR code on your classroom screen or save it as a PNG. If you ask Copilot for edits later, go to New version from a file, drop the updated file, click Upload as a new version, check the preview, and click Publish v2 at the same link—both your link and QR code stay the same.

How to share your Copilot page with students and keep it to the class

Once you upload your file in the upload box and click Keep this page — free, no card to sign up, click Publish on your page's screen. In the confirmation, the free choice is Public: students, parents, or coworkers can open your quiz or report without an account or a password, and the page may show up in search results and in Convika's gallery. A private link (Pro or pass) keeps it out of both. Your page's scripts run as soon as it goes live, on every plan.

• Microsoft Teams: Click Copy next to the Live URL and paste the link into a class channel, chat, or assignment; because a published Convika page refuses to be put in a frame, link to it so it opens in its own tab rather than embedding it (see How to share an HTML file in Microsoft Teams).
• Email: Copy your yourpage.convika.page address and send it in a message to students, parents, or office staff so they can open it in one click instead of downloading an attachment (see How to send an HTML file by email).
• Classroom screen or handout: Click Show QR code next to the Live URL to display a code on the board or save it as a PNG—it keeps working even after you publish a new version of the file (see Turn an HTML file into a QR code).

If you want an extra gate for AI quiz games for class, choose Only people with the password to password-protect an HTML page. Visitors type your password once on Convika's own screen (there is no Microsoft or Canvas sign-in) and that browser opens the page for 7 days. Page passwords are a Pro feature ($12 a month).

Why doesn't my Copilot HTML work when I publish or share it?

If your quiz, game, or report doesn't run right after you drop it in the upload box, it's usually because you're looking at the temporary preview link. Without an account, that preview stays up for 3 minutes with scripts and forms turned off, so buttons and score counters won't respond yet. Click Keep this page — free, no card, sign up, and click Publish—once the page is live in your account, its scripts run on every plan, Free included.

If you already published the page (or tried uploading it to SharePoint's HTML pages first) and something still isn't working, check how your Copilot code loads its libraries, images, and data:

• JavaScript and CDN libraries: A published Convika page runs your page's scripts and loads libraries from any https:// CDN. (If your quiz or chart broke in SharePoint's HTML pages, that's because SharePoint runs HTML in a sandboxed iframe that only allows Microsoft-managed Chart.js, Mermaid, React, Fluent UI, and Babylon from a CDN—other CDN libraries are blocked there.)
• Single file vs. local folders and images: Convika takes one .html or .htm file up to 2 MB, not a folder or a ZIP. If GitHub Copilot in VS Code saved your project with separate image, CSS, or script files on your computer, those local file links won't load. Ask Copilot to put everything into a single index.html file, and make sure any images either point to https:// addresses or are built directly into the file.
• Fetching data from other websites: Published pages can't fetch live data or make outbound API calls to other websites (both Convika and SharePoint HTML pages block fetch requests). If your page needs quiz questions or report numbers, ask Copilot to embed that data directly inside the HTML file.
• Embedding inside another site: A published Convika page refuses to be put inside an iframe, so it won't show up if you try to embed it inside a SharePoint page, Canvas, or Google Sites. Share the yourpage.convika.page link or the PNG from Show QR code instead so it opens in its own tab.

Frequently asked questions

How do I run HTML code from Copilot?

You can preview runnable code directly inside Microsoft Copilot Pages using the Preview toggle, or run and share your HTML on the web by pasting the code or dropping an .html file into the upload box. In Microsoft 365, signing in with a work or school account at microsoft365.com and asking Copilot Chat for an app with words like "app", "interactive", or "UI" generates a code-enabled Copilot Page side-by-side where the Preview toggle lets you interact with it. On Convika, scripts and forms are off in the initial preview link, so click "Keep this page — free, no card", sign up, and click Publish so your page's scripts and https:// CDN libraries run at a live link.

Can I share a Copilot page with people outside my school?

Microsoft's support page for sharing a Copilot Page states that clicking Copy link gives colleagues in your organization access to that single page, which opens in Loop, and it says nothing about people outside the organization. A published Convika link is the way to reach parents, students, or anyone outside your school, because anyone with the link opens it without an account. When you upload and publish your HTML on Convika as Public, which is free, visitors open the link without a password or sign-in, and the page may show up in search results and in Convika's gallery; a private link (Pro or pass) keeps it out of both.

Can students open a Copilot link without an account?

No, Microsoft requires recipients to sign in with their work, school, or personal Microsoft account before they can view a shared Copilot conversation link. Furthermore, Copilot Chat—which includes Copilot Pages—is only generally available for students aged 13 and older after school admins take additional steps to enable it. To let students open your page without signing in, upload or paste your HTML into the upload box, sign up for free, and publish it on Convika to get a live URL and QR code that anyone with the link can open without an account.

How do I make a quiz with Copilot and share it?

You can create a quiz by asking Copilot Chat at microsoft365.com for an app using words like "app", "interactive", or "UI" (which generates a code-enabled Copilot Page) or by having GitHub Copilot in VS Code create an .html file on your computer, and then publish the HTML through the upload box. Drop your single .html or .htm file (up to 2 MB) into the upload box or switch to Paste code to paste the code, then click Get my preview link. Because scripts and forms are off in the preview, click "Keep this page — free, no card" to sign up and click Publish so your quiz's scripts run at a live address like yourpage.convika.page. From there, click Copy next to the Live URL to send the link to students or parents, or click Show QR code to put a QR code on the classroom screen.

Is it free?

Yes, publishing Copilot's HTML as a shareable link with Convika is free and requires no credit card. Without an account or email, you can get a preview link that works for 3 minutes, and signing up for the Free plan gives you 1 published page, 10,000 page views a month, the last 90 days of page analytics, and a small Convika bar at the bottom of each page. Your page's scripts run on every plan, Free included. A free page is Public and may show up in search results and in Convika's gallery; a private link that keeps it out of both is part of Pro or the pass. If you want to protect a page with a password ("Only people with the password"), that is a Pro feature at $12 a month.
