FAQ

Password-protected link questions

Can I add a password after creating a link?

Yes. Eligible account-owned links can be updated from the link workspace.

What happens when the password is wrong?

The destination does not open and the visitor remains on the access page.

Does a password replace destination safety checks?

No. Destination safety and platform rules still apply when a protected link is created or used.
