Share a file. Keep control.
Send a link instead of an attachment. Choose how long it lasts, add a password if you need one, and revoke it when the job is done.

The problem
Why it matters
Once an attachment is sent, it is gone. A link is different, because you keep hold of the off switch. That matters on the day a file is sent to the wrong address or a supplier relationship ends sooner than planned.
How it works
Step by step
- 1
Open Shared links
See each file with a live link, when it expires and whether it has a password.
- 2
Choose Revoke
Select Revoke next to the link you want to end.
- 3
Access ends
The link stops giving access immediately, and the recipient sees that it is no longer available.
What's covered
Everything revoke access includes
- One list of live links per workspace

- Available to workspace members
- File stays in the workspace
Where it helps
Typical uses
- Correcting a mis-sent link
- Closing access when a contract ends
- Clearing out links after a project
- Replacing a link after a document update
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Will the recipient be told?
No automatic message is sent. They simply see that the link is unavailable if they open it again.
Can I reinstate a revoked link?
No. Create a new link if access is needed again, which gives you a new address to send.

Links that end when the job does
Every sharing link has an end date. Choose anything from 1 to 30 days, so old links do not quietly stay live for years.
