How Share Drop works

  1. Paste text into the box, or switch to File and choose a file.
  2. Turn on one-time if the drop should disappear after it has been opened once.
  3. Upload. You get a short key, such as 5xYz9, and a link.
  4. On the other device, open the link, or go to Share Drop, click Receive Drop and type the key.

The key is short on purpose, so you can read it out or type it on a phone without copying a long URL.

When it's useful

The formatter and the Object Mapper have a Share button too. A drop created there opens straight back in the same tool, with the content already in the editor.

What not to share

Anyone who has the key or link can open the drop until it expires, and short keys can be guessed. Don't use Share Drop for passwords, API keys, tokens or personal data. For anything sensitive, use the one-time option at the very least. The privacy policy explains how drops are stored.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a drop last?

Only a short time. Drops are kept in server memory and expire automatically, so open the link or enter the key soon after it is created. After that the link shows that the drop is no longer available.

What is a one-time link?

A drop that is deleted as soon as it has been opened or downloaded once. Anyone who tries the link or key after that gets an error, including you.

Is there a size limit?

Files can be up to 30 MB. Text drops of several megabytes work too. For bigger files, compress them or split them into parts first.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign-up. Whoever has the key or link can open the drop until it expires.

Can I send the link by email?

Yes. Enter the recipient's address before uploading and the key and link are emailed to them. If the email can't be sent from our side, your own mail app opens with the message ready to send.
