Scratchpad's document tree is a hierarchical file structure that supports drag-and-drop to reorder documents. You can also drag documents onto other documents to create child documents.
Double click a document in the Document Tree to rename the document.
When a document is public, no authentication is required to access the contents. The document is accessed by referencing the cryptographically secure random alphanumeric string. Anyone with this token can access the content while the document is public.
Scratchpad is available on Hobby Tier and Pro Tier, and limited to two (2) scratchpad documents per Host on Free Tier.
The Public Download feature is not available on Free Tier.
