About this tool
File Drop gives you a throwaway link for handing a file to someone — a log bundle, a screenshot, a config export — without email attachments, accounts, or a file living somewhere forever. Pick a file, get a link, share it. The first person to open the link gets the file; after that the link is dead.
Two limits keep it tidy. The link stops working one hour after you create it, and the file is erased from storage the instant the download completes — a scheduled job sweeps anything that is never collected. Files are capped at 25 MB and stored encrypted at rest.
Unlike every other tool here, File Drop is the one that genuinely leaves your browser: the file is uploaded to OpenReplay-run storage so the link can work on someone else's device. It is not end-to-end encrypted, so do not use it for passwords, private keys, or anything you would not place in storage you do not control.
File Drop uploads your file to a server so the link works elsewhere — it does <strong>not</strong> process locally like the other tools. Links are single-use and expire in one hour, but the transfer is not end-to-end encrypted. For passwords or keys, use a dedicated secrets manager instead.
Frequently asked questions
How long does the link last?
One hour from the moment you create it, or until someone downloads the file — whichever comes first. After that the link shows an "expired or already used" page.
What happens after the file is downloaded?
The file is deleted from storage immediately after the download completes, and the link stops working. Each link works exactly once.
Is there a size limit?
Yes — 25 MB per file. Larger uploads are rejected as they stream, before they finish.
Is the file encrypted?
It is encrypted at rest in storage, but the transfer is not end-to-end encrypted — the storage provider can technically read it. Do not use File Drop for passwords, private keys, or other secrets.
Can the file be downloaded more than once?
No. Links are strictly single-use: the first successful download consumes the link and removes the file. To send it again, upload it again for a fresh link.
