				Provide preference to always allow anyone with a link to access my Content Fusion tasks

				Every time I create a CF task, I have to set the sharing on that task to allow anyone with the link to access it. Then I email the link to the reviewers.
Sometimes (often) I forget to change the task sharing and then the reviewers reply that they don't have access.
Please can we have a preference that allows me to have the sharing set to "anyone with the link" on all tasks that I create, rather than having to set it manually each time.

				Hello,
Thank you for contacting us.
We have logged a feature request (CF-4516) related to the use case you described. For now, it is not scheduled for development, but we will notify you once it is implemented.

				As a workaround, until this option is added to the UI (according to the registered ticket CF-4516), you can set the 
task_default_access variable to 
PUBLIC  in the 
api.properties file that can be found on the machine where Content Fusion is installed at: 
/fusion/data/config/api/ [1].
So, on the machine where Content Fusion is installed, you need to modify the file 
/fusion/data/config/api/api.properties by adding the following line:
This means that all newly created tasks from the moment of this change will have the checkbox "Anyone who opens the link is automatically granted access as a Reviewer" selected.
Of course, for the change made in the 
api.properties file to take effect, the Content Fusion server needs to be restarted [2].
Best,
Cosmin
