Getting the pre-generated share link

If you need to get access to the share link that was generated at the time of sharing you can do this from the Share panel. This can only be done for those links generated at the time of sharing. When you instead use the built-in functionality that will email out the links to recipients, we generate a unique, more-secure link to each recipient and those links can not be retrieved for security reasons.

  1. Visit the Asset Page or the Collection page for the share that you want to administrate.
  2. On the left click the Sharing button to open the Sharing panel.
  3. All the shares will be listed.
  4. Click on the drop-down arrow next to the share expiry date
  5. If a link was generated it will be shown as Share URL.
  6. You can select and copy it.
