Sharing a vault in Enpass

Vaults can be easily share between Enpass users. Keep in mind that:

  • Sharing a vault means sharing the password to that vault
  • Sharing a vault that is synced via a cloud account requires logging into that cloud account via Enpass on each device that will access the vault
  • Every person with access to the shared vault has full permission to read, write, and delete items from the vault, and can backup or restore the entire vault.

If you are using Enpass Business, visit this page.

If you want to share a vault without sharing login credentials for your cloud account, we suggest creating a separate cloud account specifically for sharing vaults.

To share a cloud-synced vault:

  1. Provide the cloud-account login credentials and vault password to the person with whom the vault is being shared.
  2. That person will then follow the steps below.

 

To add to Enpass a cloud-synced vault being shared with you:

  1. Go to Settings > Vaults, and select Add new vault.
  2. Select the cloud service where the shared vault is stored — which will open a special page on that cloud's website for granting access to Enpass.
    Select the location from the list to create new vault in Enpass
  3. Login to the cloud account, and grant access to Enpass (usually a big Grant or Allow button).
  4. When you see the Enpass-styled "Authorization Finished" message, click the Redirect button and/or the Open Enpass button (if you are not automatically taken back to Enpass).
  5. In Enpass, you will see a "Restoring Data..." message, and when you see the vault name and icon, click Continue.
  6. Enter the vault password, and click Continue.
  7. When finished, click Done.
    (To save this new vault's password in your Primary Vault, click the checkbox below the password field.)
