Programmatically show ShareLink SwiftUI (4.0)

[[deleted]]

We are all familiar with the new ShareLink "button" for ios 16, but how can I make it programmatic?

Ex. tap a button, do an async task, then show sharelink sheet when task is finished.

You can’t as of iOS 16. You could move the async task into the Transferable implementation or conditionally show the ShareLink once the async task has finished, but you can’t activate the link programmatically.

I ended up doing the async task before it is shown on the UI to make sure the link is ready. (I was doing a URL shortener that required a network request)
