How do I set an expiry date on a shared file?
Add a time limit to a share so access automatically ends on the date you choose — either at the moment of sharing or afterward.
An expiry date limits how long a recipient can access a file. Once the date passes, the file is no longer viewable by that person.
Setting an expiry date when sharing
- Open the sharing panel.
- Click Add expiry date.
- Select the expiry date.
- Click Share to complete.
If your admin has configured a mandatory expiry policy, you won't be able to set a date beyond the maximum allowed by that policy.
Changing or removing the expiry later
- Go to the Shared section.
- Select the file → click Manage access in the Details panel.
- Edit or remove the expiry date for the relevant recipient.
💡 Tip: Expiry dates are per recipient — you can set different deadlines for different people on the same file.
