To share snips of content, content access rules of a content file can be parsed to identify an accessible range of the content file and an inaccessible range of the content file. In one example, content sharing includes receiving an identifier of a recipient for a content file, parsing content access rules for the recipient, to identify an accessible range of the content file, and presenting an indicator of the accessible range and an inaccessible range of the content file for the recipient. A user can then identify a selection of a snip of the accessible range of the content file in a user interface. In some cases, a copy of the snip of the content file, a link to the snip of the content file, or both can be generated and forwarded after the selection is identified.
