Share a Crosstab Without Sharing the Source Data

Create a view-only crosstab snapshot for review, citation, or a client handoff. Crosstabs keeps source rows on your device and puts only the aggregate result in the share link.

What this is useful for

  • Send a finished crosstab to a reviewer without exposing the source spreadsheet.
  • Preserve counts, labels, statistics, warnings, and provenance in an immutable link.
  • Give a client or collaborator a clean view-only result with CSV, XLSX, PDF, and citation options.
  • Let recipients recreate the analysis with their own spreadsheet or edit the aggregate table in the calculator.

Workflow

01

Build the table locally

Upload a CSV or XLSX and choose row, column, filter, and missing-value settings. Keep the quick table unweighted or run a supported saved survey design; untyped weights fail closed.

02

Create an immutable snapshot

Use Share snapshot to package the aggregate counts, display settings, warnings, and optional provenance into a fragment-only link.

03

Review and reuse

Recipients can inspect the table, copy a citation, export the result, open the aggregate table in the calculator, or run their own spreadsheet through the workspace.

What a shared snapshot contains

A snapshot contains aggregate counts, row and column labels, the visible table settings, statistical warnings, and provenance you choose to include. It does not contain source rows, the original filename, or a server-side project record.

The payload lives in the URL fragment, so the aggregate data is not sent in the HTTP request for the snapshot route. Shared pages are view-only and explicitly marked as immutable, with no expiry or revocation control in this version.

Designed for honest review

The viewer keeps effect size, significance, warnings, missing-value context, and weighting context beside the table. That makes a shared result easier to check than a screenshot while preserving the boundary between an aggregate result and the underlying data.

FAQ

Does sharing upload my spreadsheet?

No. Source rows are parsed and analyzed in your browser. A shared snapshot contains aggregate counts and the context you choose to include, not the original rows or filename.

Can someone edit a shared snapshot?

The shared view itself is immutable and view-only. Recipients can open the aggregate table in the calculator to explore edits, or run their own spreadsheet in the workspace.

Can I share a contingency table or cite a shared crosstab?

Yes. You can share a contingency table as an immutable aggregate snapshot, and the viewer provides a citation that includes the snapshot title, version, crosstabs.com, and the immutable link.

Can I revoke a snapshot link?

Not in this version. Anyone with the complete link can read it, so only include aggregate data you are comfortable distributing.
