Profile sharing lets you send one getbased profile to another person without exporting a file manually. It is designed for temporary handoff: you create a link, send the password separately, and the recipient loads the profile into their own browser.
Only create a share link when you are comfortable uploading a locked copy of that profile. Anyone who has both the link and the password can open it.

​
What gets shared

A profile share contains the selected profile’s health record:
  • Lab entries and custom markers
  • Context cards, health goals, notes, and supplements
  • Biometrics, menstrual cycle data, genetics, and Light/Sun data when present
  • Profile details such as name, sex, date of birth, location, height, and tags
It does not share your whole getbased database, other profiles, or live wearable connection credentials. Recipients import the shared profile as a separate copy in their own browser.
1

Open Share Profile

On desktop, click the share button in the top bar. On mobile, open the profile menu and choose Share Profile. You can also open Settings -> Data -> Share Profile.
2

Choose the password and expiry

Use the generated password or enter your own password. Choose how long the link should stay available: 7, 14, or 30 days.
3

Confirm upload

Read the confirmation text and check the consent box. getbased creates a locked copy of the selected profile.
4

Send the link and password separately

Copy the link and password from the result screen. Send them through different channels, for example email for the link and a secure message for the password.
The password is the only way to unlock the shared profile. It is not added to the link and is not stored by getbased.

​
Open a shared profile

1

Open the link

The link opens getbased and shows Load Shared Profile.
2

Enter the password

Paste the password that the sender gave you.
3

Load the profile

Click Load Profile. getbased unlocks the profile in your browser and imports it as a new profile.
If the password is wrong, the profile cannot be unlocked. If the link has expired or the sender stopped sharing it, it can no longer be loaded. Open Share Profile again. Links created on the current browser are listed under active links. Click Stop sharing to remove the locked copy so the link can no longer load the profile. Active links are tracked locally on the browser that created them. If you created a link on another device or cleared your browser data, it may not appear in this list.
Stopping a link prevents future loads from that link. It does not remove copies that someone already imported into their own browser.

​
Privacy model

  • The selected profile is locked in your browser before upload.
  • The password is never sent with the link and is never stored by getbased.
  • The link only finds the locked copy; the password unlocks it.
  • If the password is lost, getbased cannot recover the shared copy.
  • If someone has both the link and password, they can import the shared profile until it expires or you stop sharing it.
