TERA allows you to limit how long a shared link remains available by setting an expiration date.
This is especially helpful when sharing temporary project materials, confidential documents, or time-sensitive information.
An expiration date limits the period during which a link can be used.
Once the configured expiration condition is reached, recipients should no longer be able to access the content through that link.
Link expiration does not automatically delete the original file from your storage.
