The trick with 1Password’s secure sharing is knowing there are two different roads you can take, depending on whether you’re inside a team/family account or just sharing ad-hoc. 1. If you’re in a Family or Business plan: Shared vaults are your friend. Drop the item (login, doc, etc.) into the shared vault, and everyone with access automatically gets it. Permissions are vault-level, so you can fine-tune who can view, edit, or manage items. This is the safest, cleanest route if you’ll be sharing with the same people often. 2. If you just need to share one-off with someone (even if they don’t use 1Password) Use “Share Item” (on desktop, web, or mobile). It generates a secure link. You can set an expiry (like 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, etc.) and limit views (e.g., “only once”). The recipient clicks the link, sees the secret, and it self-destructs after the limit. This is great for handing off a password to a contractor or a friend without giving them vault access.

The easiest way to securely share with 1Password is by using shared vaults. You can create a vault, add the items you want to share, and then invite others with the right permissions. For one-time or limited sharing, 1Password also has a “share item” feature that generates a secure link with an expiration time and access controls. This way, you stay in control of what you share and for how long.
