Prevent Repo Leaks

A leaked GitHub token can grant read/write access to all your private repositories. Self-destructing links ensure tokens don't linger in chat logs.

Secure CI/CD Setup

Share tokens for CI/CD pipelines (Actions, CircleCI) with DevOps engineers without exposing them to the entire team in shared channels.

Fine-Grained Access Control

Even fine-grained tokens are sensitive. Share them securely to ensure only the intended recipient gets access.

Contractor Access

Give freelancers temporary access via tokens without adding them to your organization permanently if not needed.

GitHub API Key Sharing Use Cases

Bot Account Setup

Share tokens for bot accounts and automations with the engineering team securely.

Local Environment Config

Distribute tokens for local development environments (`.npmrc`, git config) to new hires.

Third-Party Integrations

Share tokens required for integrating GitHub with other tools (Jira, Linear, Slack) safely.

Code Review Access

Grant temporary read access to external auditors or reviewers via tokens without full org invites.

Risks of Sharing GitHub Keys Insecurely

  • •GitHub tokens in Slack are indexed and searchable forever
  • •Leaked tokens can bypass 2FA for git operations
  • •Email-shared tokens remain in sent folders indefinitely
  • •Compromised tokens can lead to supply chain attacks via malicious commits

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I share a GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT) securely?

Generate your PAT in GitHub. Paste it into SnapPwd, create a self-destructing link, and share that link. The recipient views it once, and it's gone.

Can I share GitHub OAuth tokens this way?

Yes. SnapPwd encrypts any text string, including OAuth tokens, refresh tokens, and client secrets.

What if the link expires before they view it?

For security, links expire. If that happens, simply generate a new link with the same token (or a rotated one if you suspect interception) and share it again.
