Hi,

It’s just a small feature request I don’t expect the author to fulfill this but if somehow you can implement one time temporary link feature it’ll be great. The temporary link to add profile should only be usable once only and it’ll help increase the security greatly.

The link is single use based on how it was created. If it was created from a single sign-on request from the login page it will be single use. The ones created by an administrator in the web console are not single use but expire after 24 hours. This can be changed with `sudo pritunl set app.key_link_timeout 86400` the systemd service must be restarted after to update the database expiration index.
