How to Share a Recording with a Password-Protected Link

Add a password to a shared recording link so only people who have the password can open it, even without a Bluedot account.

Anyone with a shareable link can normally open a recording. If you want an extra layer of control — for example, when sharing outside your workspace — you can require a password before the link will open.

Adding a Password to a Shared Link

  1. Open the recording and click Share.

  2. In the Share panel, click Add password, next to the Share from checkbox.

  3. Enter a password, then enter it again to confirm.

  4. Click Apply. The button now shows a green Password protected badge, confirming the link requires a password to view.

Click Copy link at the top of the Share panel to grab the link. You'll need to share the password with your recipient separately — it isn't included in the link itself.

What Recipients See

When someone opens a password-protected link, they land on a "This recording is protected" screen and are asked to enter the password. Once they enter it and click Unlock recording, they're taken straight to the recording.
