Temporary Access Link Generator
# Overview
The Temporary Access Link Generator is a security-focused API that enables the creation of time-limited, single-use or restricted-access links for secure file distribution. Built with security best practices, this tool allows organizations to share sensitive files without exposing permanent URLs or relying on third-party file-sharing services.
Key capabilities include generating expiring access tokens, uploading files with automatic link generation, and serving files through secured token-based access. This is ideal for security teams needing to distribute sensitive documentation, incident reports, or confidential materials to authorized recipients with guaranteed expiration windows.
The tool is particularly valuable for compliance scenarios, incident response workflows, and any situation where time-bound access to files is required. All access is tracked and automatically revoked after the specified expiration period.
## Usage
### Generate a temporary access link for an existing file:
```json
{
"file_url": "https://storage.example.com/documents/report.pdf",
"expire_minutes": 30
}
```
**Sample Response:**
```json
{
"token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...",
"access_url": "https://api.mkkpro.com/tools/temp-access-link/access/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...",
"expires_at": "2024-01-15T14:30:00Z",
"status": "success"
}
```
### Upload a file and receive an access link:
**Request:** Multipart form with binary file attachment
**Sample Response:**
```json
{
"filename": "sensitive_audit.pdf",
"token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...",
"access_url": "https://api.mkkpro.com/tools/temp-access-link/access/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...",
"status": "uploaded"
}
```
