SURLS / Temporary Download Link

Useful when a recipient needs a file now, but the download should not remain permanently accessible.

Deliver files for a limited window

Why this matters

Create a short-lived download path for reports, exports, assets, invoices, previews, or support files. Reduce the need to manually revoke old links.

SURLS puts link creation, lifecycle, access control, domains, and delivery behavior behind one manageable endpoint.

01

Control the lifecycle

Set expiration, usage limits, or one-time behavior so links follow the actual lifetime of the resource.

02

Protect access

Use password or PIN protection and other available access rules when a destination should not be openly exposed.

03

Keep the URL stable

Manage the destination behind the public link so published URLs can continue working as your content changes.

Core capabilities

Built around the way this link is actually used.

Choose the controls that match the resource, recipient, and lifetime of the URL.

01

Defined download window

Designed as part of a managed link workflow so the public URL remains useful while its behavior stays configurable.

02

Automatic expiry

Designed as part of a managed link workflow so the public URL remains useful while its behavior stays configurable.

03

Stable public URL

Designed as part of a managed link workflow so the public URL remains useful while its behavior stays configurable.

Frequently asked

Clear answers before you ship.

Why use a temporary download link?

It reduces the lifetime of a shared download URL and gives you a defined access window.

Can I combine multiple controls?

Yes. SURLS is designed so lifecycle and access controls can be combined where the workflow requires more than one condition.

Can I use this from an application?

Yes. SURLS provides API-oriented link infrastructure so applications can create and manage links programmatically.

Can I use my own domain?

Custom-domain support lets you connect a domain, verify DNS, and create links using that domain.

Ready when you are

Build links your product can depend on.
