Lightroom share a smart album

[Ben38918876mtz7]

Hi is there anyway to share a smart album in lightroom?  I can share normal albums (right click share) but why isn't there the same option for smart albums?  The reason I want to share smart albums is as I tag photos I then have the rule base don tag for the photo to go into different smart albums that I then share with different clients.  I can't see the option to share the smart albums

I don't think you can, and the explanation is as follows: A smart album is not really an album, but a saved search result. That means it is updated in the background every so often, to make sure it is still up to date. If you could share this online, then there would be a constant risk of a mismatch between the online album and your local version, meaning there would have to be a constantly active sync process to solve this.

That's a shame as that would be exactly the use I want, a dynamic album which pulls in latest photos based on metadata.
