Share Complete .env Files

Paste your entire .env file contents and share with a single link. Perfect for onboarding new developers or sharing config across environments.

Zero-Knowledge Encryption

Your environment variables are encrypted in your browser before transmission. We never see your database passwords, API keys, or secrets.

Self-Destructing Links

Links expire after a single view or a set time. No more worrying about .env contents sitting in Slack history or email threads forever.

No Account Required

Share environment variables instantly without signing up. The recipient doesn't need an account either—just click the link and view.

Risky Ways Teams Share .env Files

Committing .env to Git

Secrets exposed in repository history forever, even after deletion

Sharing via Slack/Teams

Environment variables searchable in chat history indefinitely

Emailing .env files

Credentials archived, forwarded, and backed up across multiple systems

Shared cloud documents

Access permissions change, sync across devices, stored unencrypted

How to Share .env Files Safely

1

Paste Your .env

Copy your environment variables or entire .env file contents into the form above

2

Get Secure Link

We encrypt everything in your browser and generate a one-time access link

3

Share & Forget

Send the link to your teammate. It self-destructs after viewing.

Common Scenarios

Onboarding New Developers

New team member needs the local development .env to get started. Share securely without adding secrets to your onboarding docs.

Contractor Handoff

External developer needs staging credentials. Share with a self-destructing link that won't persist after they've copied it.

Cross-Team Collaboration

Backend team needs to share service credentials with the mobile team. No more hunting through old Slack messages for that DATABASE_URL.

Best Practices for .env Security

Do

  • Add .env to .gitignore immediately
  • Use .env.example with placeholder values
  • Share real values via self-destructing links
  • Use different credentials per environment

Don't

  • Commit .env files to version control
  • Share .env contents in Slack or email
  • Store .env files in shared cloud drives
  • Use production credentials in development
