One-Time Secret Share Link

Generate end-to-end encrypted, zero-knowledge, burn-on-read links to share sensitive passwords and API keys securely.

URL Hash Security

The part of the URL after the # is processed locally by the browser. Web servers never receive the hash parameter in HTTP requests. Thus, the decryption key stays entirely private to the participants.

Auto-Expiration

Secrets are stored in-memory or files. They are automatically burned upon first request. For additional security, unused secrets are cleaned up from server storage, ensuring they do not persist indefinitely.

Complete Guide: How to Use the One-Time Secret Sharing Link

Sharing sensitive passwords, security tokens, or customer files via email, Slack, or chat leaves permanent logs in communications history. Our free online One-Time Secret Sharing tool creates end-to-end encrypted link nodes that auto-delete immediately upon read, leaving zero logs.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Type or paste the password, API token, or secret message into the input text box.
  2. Click the 'Generate One-Time Link' button.
  3. The browser encrypts the secret locally using AES-256 and transmits only the encrypted cipher to the server.
  4. Copy the generated link (which contains the decryption key in the # hash segment).
  5. Share the link with your recipient. Once they open it, the secret is permanently deleted from the database.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Zero-Knowledge Architecture: The decryption key is part of the URL hash fragment (#), which browsers never send to the server. We cannot decrypt your secret.
  • Burn-on-Read: The database erases the encrypted secret the microsecond it is fetched by the recipient.
  • AES-256 Encryption: Industry-standard security ensures that even if database records are intercepted, they cannot be read without the key.
  • Client-Side Performance: Encryption and key generation are processed instantly in your browser context.
