Add a password gate to a short link

Password protection adds a step before a visitor is redirected to the destination.

When to use it

A password gate can be useful for low-risk, limited-distribution links. It is not a replacement for access controls on sensitive documents or private business systems.

Choose a strong password

Use a unique password and share it through a separate channel when practical. Avoid using account passwords or other secrets.

Security limits

Do not treat a public short link as fully private. The service operator may still process request metadata needed to provide the service and protect against abuse.
