Linked Accounts

Link disposable inboxes to your Auva Account to persist them beyond the 1-hour TTL. Manage up to 10 linked inboxes from your dashboard.

Why Link?

By default, Auva Mail inboxes are truly disposable: they vanish after 1 hour. But sometimes you need a temporary inbox that lasts longer, like for:

• Monitoring a sign-up verification flow over days
• Receiving ongoing notifications from a service you don't trust with your real email
• Testing email deliverability across multiple sends

Linked inboxes give you persistence without sacrificing privacy.

Linking an Inbox

You must be authenticated with your Auva Account to link an inbox.

POST https://auva.email/api/inboxes/{id}/link
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

Response:

{
  "id": "inbox_xyz789",
  "email": "signup-test-k3m1@auva.email",
  "expiresAt": null,
  "linked": true,
  "linkedAt": "2024-03-15T10:40:00.000Z"
}

Notice expiresAt becomes null: the inbox no longer expires.

Unlinking an Inbox

POST https://auva.email/api/inboxes/{id}/unlink
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

Once unlinked, the 1-hour TTL resumes from the current time.
