How to use file expiration?

Setting an expiry on a file helps prevent that it is used after a certain date, for legal or other reasons. For example, content might be licensed up to a certain date, or a file might not be relevant anymore after a certain point.

For a file with an expiry date:

• Two weeks before expiry, a reminder email is sent to the admin and all team members having Write access to the media library containing the file.
• At expiry, the file remains visible both in the administration space and on the portal website(s), but an Expired tag is displayed on it, and it is not possible anymore to download/order the file.

You can search in the administration space for files by expiry dates via the search filters under More search criterias.
