How to open the native iOS share modal from a link on a webpage?

Question

I have a share button on my webpage. I want tapping the button in mobile Safari to open the iOS native share modal.

How do I achieve this with HTML/Javascript?

I can see that the Wall Street Journal have been able to achieve this with the share buttons on their website. I have not been able to find any answers on Stack Overflow or Google.

You could try

navigator.share({
 title: 'Your title',
 text: 'Your text',
 url: 'Your url to share'
})

on click on your link.
