Generate Public Link

The public link action will take the entire input object and store it at a randomized, unguessable public URL for a temporary amount of time. The URL to the data is then returned as a string for subsequent actions.

Data Retention and Security

The data is stored at an unguessable, randomized public URL. Staff control the duration that the data should be available for - after this time, the data is automatically deleted and purged, and users or systems attempting to access the data will receive a 404 Not Found error.
