Checkpoint: share access without revealing credentials

Let someone use an account to sign in without ever seeing its password.

Checkpoint is a way to share an account so someone can use it — for example, sign in to the service — without ever seeing the password or other credentials. It's ideal for giving a teammate or contractor access you can take back at any time.

Share with Checkpoint

  1. Open the account and choose Share.

  2. Add a person (or create a link), and pick Checkpoint as the role.

  3. Confirm.

The recipient can now use the account through Multifactor, but its credentials stay hidden from them.

Choosing the Checkpoint role for a share link

Which accounts support Checkpoint

Checkpoint works with services that have been certified to work well with it. When you open the share options:

  • If the service is supported, Checkpoint appears as a role you can choose.

  • If it isn't certified yet, you'll see a note that you can still share direct access (Viewer, Editor, or Admin) instead.

Why use Checkpoint

  • Hand off access, not secrets — people get in without learning the password.

  • Stay in control — revoke access whenever you like, and the credentials were never exposed.

  • Cleaner offboarding — no need to rotate a password just because you shared it.
