Use the expiration dropdown to choose how long you want your upload to exist. When the selected time has expired, it will be removed from the server.

Use the burn after dropdown to set a limit on how many times your data can be accessed before it will be removed from the server.

Use the password field to set a password for your upload. This will encrypt your data while stored on our server with your password, and you will need to enter the password to access (in case of private and secret uploads) or to modify (in case of read-only uploads). Your password is encrypted, and in case of secret uploads, we never even see it.

Use this dropdown to select the level of protection your upload needs. Use lower privacy levels if you or your organisation host MicroBin, and higher privacy levels if you are using a public MicroBin service.

Level 1: Public

This privacy level allows everyone to find, see, modify and remove your upload.

Level 2: Unlisted (recommended)

Unlisted uploads cannot be found unless someone knows its unique, random identifier. If someone knows this identifier, they can see, modify and remove the upload.

Level 3: Read-only

With this privacy setting, the upload cannot be found unless someone knows its unique, random identifier. If someone knows this identifier, they can see the contents but cannot modify or remove it without entering the password of the upload.

Level 4: Private

With this privacy setting, the upload cannot be found unless someone knows its unique, random identifier. If someone knows this identifier, they cannot see, modify or remove it without entering the password of the upload. Your upload and its attachments are encrypted, so they are stored safely.

Level 5: Secret

With this privacy setting, the upload cannot be found unless someone knows its unique, random identifier. If someone knows this identifier, they cannot see, modify or remove it without entering the password of the upload. Your browser sends us an already encrypted version, so the unencrypted data and password never even leave your device. This option requires you to enter your password many times when accessing your data, but is extremely safe.
