Why Links in Saved PDF Reports Expire After 28 Days

Why do links in saved PDF reports stop working?

Links included in saved PDF media reports expire after 28 days. When a report is saved as a PDF and shared with others, the article links inside it may no longer open once they are older than 28 days.

How does this affect shared reports?

If you share a report as a PDF, the report itself can still be opened, but the individual article links inside it may stop working after the expiration period. This applies to links in reports that are opened later, including previous versions of the same report.

What should you expect?

• PDF reports can contain links to saved articles and mentions
• Those links are only available for a limited time
• After 28 days, the links expire because of copyright

What to do when a link no longer opens

1. Check whether the linked article is older than 28 days.
2. Review the report content without relying on the expired links.
3. Create a new report if you need current, accessible links.

Summary

Shared PDF reports can still be used for reference, but article links inside them expire after 28 days.
