- Submit the request to an external assignee and create the private response link from its details.
- Explicitly select eligible reference files. Sharing a section can expose its whole source file: review the complete file before granting access.
- Share the complete private link with the intended recipient, or use the separately enabled reviewed email action.
- The recipient writes the response, confirms their identity and submits once. This records an answer; it does not close the request.
The link is a private, expiring, single-use capability. Do not publish it. Replace or revoke it explicitly when needed. Reopening requires a new link for the new response cycle. If a management save is uncertain, refresh the RFI before another action.
