The problem
Operational data is on a public link.
A view share link exposes a base to anyone who has the URL. Security finds it in a review, then waits on the base owner to revoke it.
Until that happens, the link keeps working. Exposed operational data waits on whoever created the share, and the fix is easy to forget once the alert scrolls by.
The outcome
Data exposure closed on request
Stepwork revokes the share link and confirms it no longer loads. The exposure ends with the request, and the run records who asked and which link was revoked.
- The specified share link is revoked.
- The link no longer loads.
- If the link cannot be found, the run stops.
The process
From Slack request to a revoked share link
Security posts the share link in Slack. Stepwork opens the view’s share settings in Airtable and revokes it.
- Step 1
Request it in Slack
A security teammate posts the Airtable share link in the security channel. That message starts the flow, and Stepwork records who asked and when.
- Step 2
Open the share settings
Stepwork signs in to Airtable and opens the view’s share settings for that link. If it cannot be opened, the run stops.
- Step 3
Revoke the link
Stepwork revokes the share link, the same control a base owner uses by hand.
- Step 4
Confirm and reply in Slack
Stepwork checks that the link no longer loads, then posts the result back in Slack.
Why Stepwork
The share dies when security asks
Stepwork runs only the revoke path you recorded. It does not wait on the base owner, so exposure closes as soon as the request lands.
