GUIDE
sing-box remote profile: how to refresh the link and why you do not share it
Published: 2026-09-20 · Updated: 2026-09-20
The Connect link in the bot or the cabinet issues a remote profile for official sing-box. A Remote-type profile pulls servers itself. If a node changes, the link is often the same and the contents refresh. Do not post that link in chats or send it to support. Install SFI, SFA, SFW, SFM or SFL. If the tunnel will not come up, use the will-not-connect checklist, not hand-edited JSON.
The Connect link is access
When access is active, the bot and the cabinet show a personal link. Whoever has it can import your profile. That is why it does not belong on a ticket screenshot or in a chat as “just the config”.
Why Remote, not a saved file
In official sing-box you create a Remote profile and paste the link. The client fetches the current configuration. A file saved on disk falls behind quickly.
How to refresh after a server change
The link often stays the same. Open Connect again and let the client refresh Remote. Reinstalling the app is not the first move.
What counts as a secret
The token in the profile URL, cabinet login cookies, wallet seeds and keys. Those are not ticket material.
What to write to support
Device and client (SFI, SFA, SFW, SFM or SFL), approximate time, what you expected and what happened. A screenshot without the link, if it helps.
Official client
iPhone: SFI. Android: SFA. Windows: SFW. macOS: SFM. Linux: SFL. Third-party shells are not supported.
If the tunnel will not come up
This page is about the link, not the full access checklist. No active plan, no OS permission, a stale profile: the step order is in Will not connect.
Short answers
Can I send the link to support so they can fix it?
No. The link is access. Describe the device, the client and what happened.
Do I reinstall sing-box after a server change?
Usually not. Refresh the Remote profile from Connect.
Will any shell work if I paste the link?
Vinipuch supports only SFI, SFA, SFW, SFM and SFL.
Does the traffic counter show sites?
No. It is a byte total for the period, not a page history.
