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?

ah I meant public links to a report/sheet. we want to purge or expire these public links after the need is over; because we are sure most users won't remember to toggle the public link off on the sheets or reports. 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!
Have any of you created a Smartsheet that would show the savings for a project by the month? In other words, if I saved $1200 annually and the project ended in say March, then the savings would go $120 per month, Mar 2025-Feb 2026. I have done it on Excel sheets manually, but I think there should be a way to do it with…
Hello team! Hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season. I am trying to set up an automation that will send an email reminder one time when Next Update Date = 60 days, then another automation at 30d, etc. The key is I only want it to send the reminder one time when Next Update threshold is reached. Is this possible?…
Has anyone found a workaround for sharing Smartsheet reports externally without giving access to internal data? I currently have to download the data and transfer it onto excel to create a pivot table for our client and I want to find an easier way to do so. I also already create a dashboard for our client, but I wanted…
