How to Share a Defurnished Matterport Model (Workaround)
Posted by Oliver Murray on 28th Feb 2025
Matterport's new "Defurnish" feature is a game-changer for real estate and AEC professionals, allowing you to view spaces without furniture. However, directly sharing a defurnished view isn't straightforward—yet. Here's a quick workaround:
Steps:
-
Log In and Share:
- Access your Matterport account on a desktop computer.
- Select the desired space and click "Share" in the top right corner.
- Choose "Unlisted" and then click "Copy Link."
-
Generate the Defurnished Link:
- Paste the copied link into a new browser window.
- In the Matterport model, click the "Defurnish" toggle (bottom left).
- Now copy the URL from the browser's address bar.
-
Share the Defurnished View:
- Use the newly copied URL to share the defurnished version of your Matterport model.
Important Note:
- Currently, Matterport only provides a direct share link for the furnished version.
- Matterport has announced that they are working on adding the ability to share the defurnished view directly, and to toggle the guided tour navigation between the two states. This announcement was made on February 20th 2025.
- Until that update is released, this workaround allows you to share your defurnished models effectively.
