Change a shared presentation’s settings in Keynote on iPad
If you’re the owner of a presentation that’s shared with others, you can view or change its access and permission settings at any time.
If a presentation’s access is set to “Only people you invite,” you can also set a different permission for each individual.

.If the presentation is closed: In the presentation manager or Files app, open the Keynote folder in iCloud Drive, tap Select in the top-right corner, tap the presentation (a checkmark appears), tap Share at the bottom of the screen, then tap Show People.
The participant list appears. Participants can edit the presentation unless you see View Only below their name.
If you’re the owner, tap Share Options to see a summary of the access and permission settings.
To view permission for an individual, tap a name.
Change access for everyone
If you’re the owner of the presentation, you can change its access at any time, but anyone you shared the link with is affected. Here are the results of changing the setting:
From “Only people you invite” to “Anyone with the link”: The people you originally invited can still open the presentation, along with anyone else who has the link. They don’t need to sign in with the email address or phone number you used to send the link.
From “Anyone with the link” to “Only people you invite”: The original link no longer works for anyone. Only people who receive an invitation from you and who sign in with their Apple ID can access the presentation.

Tap Share Options, then tap the access setting you want.
Anyone who has the presentation open when you change the setting sees an alert, and if your change causes the person to lose access to the presentation, it closes immediately. Otherwise, the new setting takes effect when they dismiss the alert.
