- Click "Send" to send the shapefile via email.
Method 2: Using ArcGIS Desktop
- Open ArcGIS Desktop and navigate to the shapefile you want to share.
- Right-click on the shapefile and select "Export" > "Export Data".
- In the "Export Data" dialog box, select "Shapefile" as the format and choose a location to save the file.

Tips
- Make sure the shapefile is not too large to send via email. If it is, consider using a file-sharing service or compressing the file before sending.
- If you're sending a shapefile to someone who doesn't have ArcGIS, you may want to consider converting it to a more widely supported format, such as GeoJSON or KML.
- Be mindful of any copyright or licensing restrictions that may apply to the shapefile data.
