Do published links expire after a certain amount of time? We are using published links for invoices and have noticed some stop working but cannot confirm if they ever worked at all.
Hi Leah,
Yes they do!
_NOTE: The link in the email will expire after 30 days or after it's been clicked 100 times. This is a security precaution to prevent unlimited access to your files. If needed, you can re-send the attachment through email to generate a new link._
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic week!

Is there a way to keep the link active? We use this often and it would be a pretty big issue if the link became inactive. I wasn’t aware this happened. Does it happen for enterprise users as well, or just non enterprise users?
I have checked a couple older than 30 days and I can still access sheets I’m shared to and sheets I’m not. Is there some other factor that causes the links to expire? It doesn’t seem to be happening yet.
Hi Julie,
Are you sharing the links to attachments thru email from Smartsheet?

But as Admin I don't have full visibility into all users sheets and links and there is no functionality to disable the public link by the admin anyways.

Ok.
I'll look at the other post!
How can I delete old sheets I no longer use from my account?
I'm trying to display a task progress chart showing "complete", "late", and "not complete" in my dashboard and for some reason the chart will display as a column chart but it won't display as a donut chart even though I'm referencing the same report. I'd prefer to display as a donut chart as I think it looks better and is…
Hello, I am trying to create a chart widget in my dashboard, but I keep getting "Selected data cannot be charted. Please select a new range." error.
