Cloud IDE hosts your personal SSH and API keys so that you can seamlessly integrate with the Cloud Platform applications and services. When you create an IDE, it’s yours and can’t be shared for security reasons. However, you can share the preview site with your customers or QA team. To achieve this, use the `acli ide:share` command to obtain the share URL.
