Temporary public file links and revocation
Share one Joule file with a temporary link, understand expiry, and remove the link when access is no longer needed.
Last verified 3 days ago
Temporary public file links let Joule make one workspace file available through a link for a limited time. Use one when someone needs to open a specific output or file without joining the whole Joule session.
Temporary file links are not permanent public pages. Each link expires, and you can remove it sooner from the link card in the chat.
When to use a temporary link
Use a temporary file link when you want to share a single file, preview, generated asset, report, or other workspace output outside the session.
Use session sharing instead when a teammate needs the full conversation, context, files, and ability to continue the work. Session access and temporary file links solve different problems: one shares a Joule session, the other shares one file.
What the link card shows
When Joule creates a temporary link, the chat shows a Temporary file link ready card. The card includes the file name, file type, file size, link actions, and expiry date.
Use Open link to preview the file in a new tab. Use Copy link when you need to send the link somewhere else. For image files, the card can also show an inline preview.
Expiry and size limits
Temporary file links are time-limited. The current supported duration is 1 to 30 days, and the default is 1 day when no longer duration is provided.
The current default file-size cap is 100 MiB. If a file is too large to publish, use another sharing path, reduce the file size, or share the Joule session with the teammate who needs the work.
Remove a temporary link
Use Remove link when a file no longer needs to be available through that temporary link. Ampere asks for confirmation before removing the link.
After a link is removed or expires, the card no longer offers Open link or Copy link for that file. Removing the link stops Ampere serving that temporary link; keep a separate copy of any file you still need.
Before you share
Check that the file is safe to share outside the session. Do not use temporary links for passwords, credentials, private customer files, billing details, or anything that should stay restricted to the organization.
Share the narrowest thing that solves the problem. If someone only needs one file, use the temporary link. If they need the broader chat context, use Share a Joule session instead.
