Protect the contents of your Send by optionally configuring a [password for access](#send-passwords) so that no unintended recipients can see the contained information, and/or to [hide your email from recipients](). For text Sends, you can also optionally require recipients to [toggle visibility](#hide-text) to prevent exposure to unintentional onlookers.
|
|
|
|
The **Password**, **Hide Email**, and **Hide Text** options are configurable from the Create New Send view, or from the Edit Send views at any time prior to the Send's [deletion]({{site.baseurl}}/article/send-lifespan/#deletion-behavior).
|
|
|
|
## Send Passwords
|
|
|
|
For any Send, you may configure a password that recipients will be required to enter in order to access its contents. Password-protecting a Send is a good way to ensure the contents of a Send aren't exposed to unintended recipients:
|
|
|
|
{% image send/send-pw-protected.png Receiving a password-protected Send%}
|
|
|
|
Once you password-protect a Send, you won't be able to view the configured password again, however you can [change](#change-send-passwords) or [remove](#remove-send-passwords) it at any time:
|
|
|
|
### Change Send Passwords
|
|
|
|
You can change a Send's password at any time from the **Edit Send** view. Changing a Send's password **will not** require you to enter the previous password. When changing a Send's password, the **Password** field will change to **New Password**:
|
|
|
|
{% image send/send-new-pw.png %}
|
|
|
|
### Remove Send Passwords
|
|
|
|
You can remove a Send's password at any time using the {% icon fa-undo %} **Remove Password** menu option. Removing a Send's password **will not** require you to enter the previous password.
|
|
|
|
## Hide Email
|
|
|
|
{% callout success %}
|
|
For Enterprise Organizations, the availability of this option can be set using an [Enterprise Policy]({{site.baseurl}}/article/policies/#send-options).
|
|
{% endcallout %}
|
|
|
|
By default, Send objects will display the email address of the Sender to recipients:
|
|
|
|
{% image send/send-email-visible.png Sender Email Visible %}
|
|
|
|
Toggle the **Hide my email address from recipients** option to remove your email address from the Send object. Send recipients can still validate the trustworthiness of of expected Sends by cross-referencing the **Send link** with their Sender. Hidden-email Send objects will issue a warning to recipients encouraging them to do so:
|
|
|
|
{% image send/send-email-hidden.png Sender Email Hidden %}
|
|
|
|
## Hide Text
|
|
|
|
For text Sends, toggle the **When accessing the Send, hide the text by default** option to require recipients to {% icon fa-eye %} **Toggle Visibility** in order to see its contents. Hiding the text on a Send is a good way to ensure the contents of a Send aren't exposed to unintentional onlookers:
|
|
|
|
{% image send/send-hidden-text.png Receiving a hidden-text Send%}
