Hi all,

 

Can you confirm if you are still seeing this issue? Per-Site Anyone Link Expiration should work for all sites (including group sites) so if you are not seeing that, then that's something for us to track down 🙂

StephenRice Maybe you can answer me an additional question about this feature? If the policy on the site is changed back to the tenant setting (e.g. 10 days), what happens with existing sharing links? Are they valid until they expire (e.g. for 90 days, from the previous configuration), or do they expire immediately?

    Hi TobiasAT,

     

    Glad to hear it is working!

     

    And it's been a while since I've looked at this but my recollection is that yes, the old links will respect the new tenant setting though I think they may only show up as expired after a user clicks on them (and gets the access denied experience). Hope that helps!
