# Manage Your Share Links and View Stats in StaccShare

> View, edit, and revoke all your active share links from the StaccShare Shares dashboard, including link stats like view and download counts.

The Shares section in StaccShare gives you a central place to see every link you've created, check its current status, and review its activity — so you always know exactly what's been shared and who's been engaging with it.

## The Shares dashboard

Access the Shares dashboard by clicking **Shares** in the left sidebar. The dashboard displays a table of all your active and expired links, with the following columns:

| Column        | Description                                   |
| ------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| **Name**      | The title of the shared file or collection    |
| **Type**      | Whether the share is a file or a collection   |
| **Created**   | The date the share link was created           |
| **Expiry**    | When the link expires, or "No expiry"         |
| **Views**     | How many times the share page has been opened |
| **Downloads** | How many times the file has been downloaded   |
| **Status**    | Active, Expired, or Revoked                   |

## Link statistics

StaccShare automatically tracks engagement for every share link you create:

* **View count** — the number of times a recipient has opened the share page
* **Download count** — the number of times a recipient has downloaded the file

<Tip>
  Check view and download counts to confirm whether a client has opened your deliverable. A view count above zero means they've seen it; a download count above zero means they've saved it.
</Tip>

## Editing a share link

To change the expiry or permissions on an existing share link:

1. Locate the share in the Shares dashboard.
2. Click the **⋮** menu at the end of the row.
3. Select **Edit**.
4. Update the expiry, permissions, or title as needed.
5. Click **Save**.

Changes take effect immediately and the link URL does not change.

## Revoking a share link

To deactivate a share link immediately:

1. Locate the share in the Shares dashboard.
2. Click the **⋮** menu at the end of the row.
3. Select **Stop sharing**.
4. Confirm the action in the dialog that appears.

The link stops working the moment you confirm.

<Note>
  Revoking a link does not erase its history. Past view and download counts are preserved in your Shares dashboard so you retain a full record of engagement.
</Note>

## Expired links

When a link passes its expiry date, it is automatically deactivated and marked with an **Expired** badge in the Shares dashboard. The URL stops working without any action needed on your part.

If you want to share the same file again, click **Reshare** on any expired link. StaccShare creates a fresh link for the same file — you can choose new expiry and permission settings before generating it.

## Searching and filtering

Use the tools at the top of the Shares dashboard to quickly find a specific share:

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Search by name" icon="magnifying-glass">
    Type in the search bar to filter shares by file or collection name.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Filter by type or status" icon="filter">
    Use the **Type** dropdown to show only file or collection shares. Use the **Status** dropdown to show only Active or Expired links.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>
