Public link
Public links to a file can be created by its owner or by a user with Can manage permissions. For users with Can view and Can edit permissions, the Public links tab displays the appropriate notification with information about the document owner.
On the Public links tab, you can create new public links to an element, view the existing ones and manage them. Active links are displayed in a list. For public links, the link address, expiration date, link author and password (if any), are indicated. The list of links is sorted in ascending order depending on the link validity period. The sorting type cannot be changed.
The following actions with public links can be performed:
•Copy a link
•Copy a password
•Copying data to access the element (link, expiration date, and password, if any)
•Delete a link
A public link can be blocked by the system administrator in charge of MyOffice applications or automatically when spam is suspected (for example, when a large number of similar requests are received from users or programs). Such a link is marked with

An open one-time access link is displayed in pale gray in the link list. If you click the one-time access link again from a different IP address or web browser, the content of the link will not be available.
When you share a folder, users will have access to all the elements in that folder.

•When the user who created the public link is deleted or blocked.
•When a document is deleted or moved/copied with replacement.
•When an element is moved to the Common folders where the system administrator system has disabled the possibility to create public links.
•Upon expiration of the link.
