Collect files with Secure Inbox

Secure Inbox is for receiving files from outside people. They get a focused upload page, not access to browse your existing Vault contents.

New Vault dialog with Enable secure inbox mode and intake controls visible.

Create a secure inbox

  1. 1. Start a new vault. Secure inboxes are created as secure inbox vaults.
  2. 2. Enable secure inbox mode. This prepares a public upload path for senders.
  3. 3. Add instructions. Tell senders what to upload and what details to include.
  4. 4. Choose controls. Consider sender notes, access codes, human verification, expiration, and notifications.
  5. 5. Share the public ingress link. Send it to the person or group that should upload files.

Public links should usually have an access code

If you publish a secure inbox link on a website, social profile, or other public place, strongly consider requiring an access code. The link gets people to the upload page; the access code adds another gate before upload.

What senders can do

  • Open the upload link
  • Read your instructions
  • Add files and sender notes
  • Submit files into the inbox

What senders cannot do

  • Browse your Vault contents
  • See unrelated files
  • Manage your workspace
  • Turn the upload link into team access
