Link Settings
When sharing content externally, you can customize the link with access restrictions, download permissions, and more.
- Customizing Security
- Customizing General Settings
- Editing and Disabling Links
- Setting Default Link Settings (admin only)
ℹ️ To open link settings, click More or Customize Link, depending on how you’re sharing.
Customizing Security
To restrict access:
- Open link settings and go to the Security tab.
- In the Security Options dropdown, select Restrict Who Can View the Asset.
- Enter the email addresses or email domains that can access the content.
To gate the link:
- Open link settings and go to the Security tab.
- In the Security Options dropdown, select Recipient to Enter Their Email ID to View the Asset.
- Choose whether to require OTP verification:
- With OTP: Recipients enter a one-time code sent to their email, which confirms the email is valid. This adds an extra step before they can view the content.
- Without OTP: Recipients only enter their email, which keeps access quick and easy.
General Customizations
Open link settings and, on the General tab, update any of the following:
- Link Name: Name the link so you can identify where it was shared, like “LinkedIn Post [date].”
- Share Using: When sharing through a template, sequence, or marketing email, select the link for the tool you’re using to get better engagement data. To learn more, see Platform-Specific Links.
- On Click: For files, choose whether the file opens in a browser tab or downloads automatically.
- Allow Download: For files, choose whether recipients can download the file.
- Send Notification: By default, you’ll get an email notification each time a recipient clicks the link. When sharing in bulk, we recommend turning this off.
- Do Not Track: Turn off engagement tracking for the link (not recommended).
- Link Title: Edit the content’s title as recipients see it.
Editing and Disabling Links
You can edit or disable a link after it’s shared from any of these places:
- My Stuff > My Links
- Content Insight > Links (open the content first)
- Insights > Engagement > Links (admin only)
ℹ️ Users can only edit or disable links they’ve shared. Admins can edit or disable any link.
Setting Default Link Settings (admin only)
Admins can set default link settings for content and prevent users from changing them.
⚠️ Changes to default link settings only apply to future shares. To update a link that’s already been shared, see Editing and Disabling Links.
- Open the content.
- Hover over More Actions (three dots) to the right of Share and select Settings.
- Update the default link settings.
