Set Link Expiration

3 λεπτά ανάγνωσης

PaperLink lets you set an expiration date on any sharing link. After the selected date, the link stops working and viewers see a "Document Unavailable" page.

Use expiration dates for time-sensitive documents - tender responses, pitch decks, draft contracts, or any file that should not remain accessible indefinitely.

  1. Open a document from Shared Documents in the sidebar.
  2. Click Create Link at the bottom of the document page.
  3. Scroll to the Link Settings section.
  4. In the Expiration Date field, pick a date using the calendar selector. The earliest selectable date is today.
  5. Click Create Link to save.

The label below the date field reads "Link will stop working after this date." If no date is selected, it reads "No expiration - link will work forever."

  1. Open the document that has the link.
  2. Click the link to open its settings.
  3. Click Edit.
  4. In the Expiration Date field, pick a new date or change the existing one.
  5. Click Save Changes.

To remove an expiration entirely, check the Remove expiration checkbox that appears below the date field. This makes the link permanent again.

Changing the expiration date does not change the link URL. Recipients keep using the same address - the new date applies immediately.

What the Viewer Sees After Expiration

When a link expires, viewers see a "Document Unavailable" page. The page does not reveal the specific reason - whether the link expired, the document was removed, or the owner deactivated the link.

PaperLink checks expiration before all other access controls. An expired link does not prompt for a password, email, or agreement signature.

All analytics data collected before expiration remains in your dashboard. Expiration does not delete view history.

Yes. Open the link settings and either pick a new future date or remove the expiration entirely. The link becomes active again immediately using the same URL.
