How to share shortcut after I revised its action Run shortcut?

How to share shortcut after I revised its action Run shortcut? I am finding recipient of my shared file doesn’t get the revised shortcut name for Run Action; it’s still stuck to previous shortcut name for Run Action.

I have to clear the variable for Run Action and select the correct shortcut name.

When you revise a Shortcut, its shared iCloud link that you may have supplied previously is not updated. You will need to click the specific Shortcut Share icon and redo copy iCloud link. Then you provide that updated link from the clipboard to the user as a link to download the revised Shortcut.

  2. share A and B to iCloud folder for people who know John
  3. John email Mary to ensure contact is recognized
  4. John revised ① contact to include email address for Mary and ② contact app to add Mary account contacts ③ list added to Mary list
