    Hi EmmaL1, thanks for messaging the Community!

     

    Shared links remain valid indefinitely, provided you don't delete the link itself, or delete the files or folders that the link is referring to on your account.

     

    If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

A shared link will exist for as long as the file or folder exists, or until the link is removed manually. They don't expire.
