Allow access to estate documents

How do I grant someone access to documents stored 1Password?  The user is sophisticated but does not have a 1Password account.  These are estate documents like Letter of Instructions and the user is not an executor.

I'm looking for a method that is simple and can remain dormant for a number of years, I hope.

Thanks,

Tom Morris

It's not really meant as a digital publicly available storage system, but you can share anything but normally such as link is only valid for 30 days. So 'dormant for years' isn't really what you'd be looking for. If it's estate documents I'd recommend looking into other means than a password tool?

Or you'd include them in your family and then they can access it from a (additionally created vault) whenever they want?
