$ curl https://transfer.sh/(15HKz/hello.txt,15HKz/hello.txt).zip

Encrypt your files before the transfer

You can encrypt files using gpg. The following command will encrypt the data before it leaves your server using the password you enter and upload it to transfer.sh.

$ cat /tmp/hello.txt|gpg -ac -o-|curl -X PUT --upload-file "-" https://transfer.sh/test.txt

Encrypt and upload

$ curl https://transfer.sh/1lDau/test.txt|gpg -o- > /tmp/hello.txt
