Encrypted Share Links Both

Encrypted Share Links allow you to share read-only snapshots of specific tasks or project checklists with anyone—even if they do not have a TapTidy account—using zero-knowledge client-side encryption.

How Zero-Knowledge Sharing Works

1. Encrypt on Device
Your browser encrypts task details with a random AES-GCM key
→
2. Server Stores Ciphertext
Server hosts encrypted payload without knowing the key
→
3. Fragment Decryption
Key lives in URL hash fragment (#key), decrypted client-side

Because the decryption key resides in the URL hash fragment (e.g. https://taptidy.app/share/encrypted/token#encryptionKey), web browsers never send the key to the server during HTTP requests. Only the person holding the full link can decrypt and view the content.

Creating & Managing Share Links

  1. Open any task or project and select Share → Create Encrypted Link.
  2. Copy the generated secret link and send it via your preferred messaging channel.
  3. You can set optional expiration dates or immediately revoke the link from the task detail panel at any time.
