# Shop Feature Request: Limit purchase to selected customers.

September 3, 2010

We have had [quite a few requests](/content/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=2679/index.html) to find a way to share a design with specific people without making the design public. In the last round of website updates this is now possible with a **hidden model view state**. It is relatively easy to do and means that you can sell the object to a customer whom with you share a private URL that includes a security code to access but still allows you to include (and conceal) your mark-up.

Follow the steps below.

1. Upload your file as per usual  
2. Set Model availability to **Available to All**  
3. From the Model view state drop down box select **Hidden**  
4. **Save Changes**  
5. Reload the page  
6. **Copy the new URL from the browser** that now includes a security key  
7. send URL to client

Let us know if this is something that is useful to you or if there are any other functions that might be included?
