 Similarly to data, you can use the closest time range in a custom scene object using `sceneGraph.getTimeRange(model)`. This method can be used both in the custom object class and the renderer, as described previously in the [Use data](#use-data) section.
 
+## Sharing same data provide 
+
+If you need to share the same data provider between many different scene objects and cannot do it by placing the $data on a shared common ancestor you can use the `DataProviderSharer`. This is a data provider that can share/forward data from another data provider.
