What do you mean by expiration? Do you mean retention of documents? Or sharing of documents?

ChrisWebbTech&nbsp;&nbsp;I don't mean that, but I do meanFor example, I have a commercial registration certificate that expires after 6 months, for exampleI want to set a date and get an email alert when that date comes

You can look into retention and disposition of content, but that's pretty complex and requires labeling of all documents etc. But it sounds like you need to setup tasks or something based on that document. In this case I would have a library with a follow up metadata column and then create a flow using power automate that runs on a daily schedule and e-mail or create a task or whatever other action when that date matches the date you set in that column for the file. Laura Rogers and Shane Young have some good content on Youtube for learning flow etc. if you want to look into going down that route.

It would be similar to this, but instead of "Created" It would be a custom date column on your library like "Expires on"&nbsp;
