Getting Started
trmnl.link gives your TRMNL plugins persistent, user-owned read/write storage — no third-party service required.
1. Create a device
Pick a plugin, create a device, and copy its secret passphrase. No account needed.
2. Paste the secret into your plugin
On each refresh, the plugin fetches your data:
GET /api/<app>?secret=<device_secret>
3. Edit from your phone
The plugin shows a QR code. Scan it to add or update data — anyone holding the device can edit, no login required.
| Step | Where | Auth |
|---|---|---|
| Read | TRMNL device | Device secret |
| Edit | Your phone | QR token |
Tip: QR tokens expire after 24 hours and refresh on every device fetch.
