How to share documents and files with 1Password Want to see it in action? We shared something with you to give you a sneak peek. To recap: open the item in 1Password, share it, and send it.


That last bit’s optional, though: recipients need not be 1Password customers to view a shared link. They can copy each field individually, or save a copy of the item in their own 1Password account. When my recipient clicks the link, they’ll see each field for that item – for a bank account, that may be the account number and routing number, possibly a PIN if I’ve added one – in their web browser. I can share that link wherever I wish – in an email or a chat, for example. When I select the “Get Link to Share” button, I then have the option to copy the share link I just generated. (If I restrict sharing to only people I specify, they’ll need to verify their email address with a one-time code to view the item.) I can also toggle an option to make the link self-destruct after it’s been viewed for the first time. I can set an expiration date for the sharing link I’m about to generate, and I can choose to share it with anyone with the link, or only with people I specify. Then I navigate to the item menu and select “Share.” To do that, I first open the item in 1Password. Let’s say I want to share my bank account information with my partner. Item sharing with 1Password is the easiest way to share anything in your 1Password vault with anyone else. Item sharing now supports sharing documents (the Document item type in 1Password) and files (files attached to any other 1Password item, like logins, secure notes, and credit cards). In October, we introduced a new way for 1Password customers to securely share virtually anything in their 1Password vault with anyone – even if the recipient doesn’t use 1Password.
