    +1 from me.

    We quite often create secrets that we wish to share securely, then burn with fire. Example - one of our customers needs a password reset to a temporary password which they will then change. We don't want to retain it.

    Our workaround is to create an item, share it then immediately delete it. But that's prone to error from our customer service reps. Under pressure, they will forget the last step.

    Our previous password manager (PasswordState) had a really straight-forward "self-destruct message" feature, where you could share any secret, even if it did not exist as an item. Just type it in, hit send and forget about it.

    That's what I really want.

    Hi @stuartclowes

    As @Max_ag mentioned above, "It's actually very much in the end stages of development and it should hopefully be live in our October release!"

    You can keep track of our release notes here to see what's new and what's fixed:

    @stuartclowes This new feature won't help in that situation, item expiry will just allow you to set alerts for when an item is expiring. e.g. you might want to rotate a password in 6 months so you can set a reminder for that

    What you're describing would be essentially an update to our share service, but I'll log that feedback with the team!

    Max, thanks. I have noticed on these forums that the tracking of "feature requests" isn't formally published, so you get frustrated users chasing or asking multiple times. My overall feedback is that "feature requests" need to handled a bit more formally.

    Thank you for the feedback! All feature requests are tracked in an internal system and we definitely want folks writing in to tell us that they'd personally like to see a certain feature built so that we can measure the demand and communicate that request to the appropriate team internally.

    Once a feature request has been filed, there usually aren't any updates to provide until it's been built and released. Then you'll see it noted in our release notes: 1Password Releases
