How do I connect to a vault with a PIN?

By Chris Winfield-Blum • August 18, 2026

If a vault owner has enabled an override code, they can give you the vault ID (a UUID) and a PIN. You can then connect your account as a recipient without waiting for an email invite.

  1. Sign in to Si Forte.
  2. Open Shared Vaults and choose Connect to Vault, or go directly to /shared-vaults/connect.
  3. Enter the Vault ID and PIN exactly as they were given to you.
  4. Submit the form.

If the combination is invalid, or override codes are not enabled on that vault, you will see an error. A successful connection does not automatically unlock the vault. You will see it on Shared Vaults after it is unlocked, and you will be notified when that happens.
