How to find everywhere a link to a document appears in a site collection?
Hi,
Does anyone know how to find everywhere a link to a document appears in a site collection? This would include pages, document libraries, link lists, content editor web parts -- I think you get the idea.
My problem, on occasion the file name of a document is changed causing broken links. If I knew the location of the links, I could correct. Searching for the URL doesn't seem to work.
Version: SharePoint Online
Thanks.

- We have turned on the Document ID feature and this gives us a unique link to any document, pages, etc., that works even when someone renamed the document, page, etc.
Just my short input, kind regard, John- John - does this feature work ACROSS different sites, or just for documents that stay within ONE specific site?
John,
Thank you for bringing this feature to my attention.

I voted for this feature.
So, from the response, I imply that SharePoint doesn't have link check capability.
- Powershell could be an option
