<p>
When managing a short link with
<a href="https://azaz.click/"><strong>Azaz</strong></a>,
check the link's available settings to see whether an expiration option is
available.
</p>
<h2>What is link expiration?</h2>
<p>
Link expiration allows a short link to stop being available after a
specified condition, such as a particular date or time, when that option is
supported.
</p>
<p>
This can be useful for links related to temporary campaigns, events,
announcements, limited-time content, or other resources that should not
remain available indefinitely.
</p>
<h2>Check your link settings</h2>
<ol>
<li>
<a href="https://azaz.click/user/login"><strong>Sign in to Azaz</strong></a>.
</li>
<li>
Open your
<a href="https://azaz.click/user"><strong>Azaz Dashboard</strong></a>.
</li>
<li>
Go to
<a href="https://azaz.click/user/links"><strong>My Links</strong></a>.
</li>
<li>Find the short link you want to manage.</li>
<li>Open its available edit or management options.</li>
<li>Look for an expiration or scheduling option.</li>
</ol>
<h2>Set an expiration date</h2>
<p>
If an expiration setting is available, choose the date or other expiration
condition you want and save the changes.
</p>
<p>
Review the setting carefully before saving, especially if the short link is
already being shared publicly.
</p>
<h2>What happens after a link expires?</h2>
<p>
The behavior of an expired link depends on the options provided by Azaz.
Visitors may no longer be redirected to the original destination after the
expiration condition is reached.
</p>
<p>
Test the link after its expiration if you need to confirm exactly what
visitors will see.
</p>
<h2>Think about where the link is being used</h2>
<p>
Before setting an expiration date, remember that the short URL may already
appear in:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Websites</li>
<li>Social media posts</li>
<li>Emails and messages</li>
<li>QR codes</li>
<li>Business cards</li>
<li>Posters or signs</li>
<li>Menus or printed materials</li>
</ul>
<p>
Those copies can remain visible even after the short link itself has expired.
</p>
<h2>Expiration and QR codes</h2>
<p>
A QR code containing an Azaz short URL does not automatically disappear when
the short link expires.
</p>
<p>
The QR code will continue to contain the same URL, but that URL may no longer
redirect to its previous destination after the expiration condition is reached.
</p>
<p>
You can create QR codes using
<a href="https://azaz.click/qr-codes"><strong>Azaz QR Codes</strong></a>
or access your
<a href="https://azaz.click/user/qr"><strong>QR dashboard</strong></a>.
</p>
<h2>Can I change the expiration later?</h2>
<p>
If Azaz allows the expiration setting to be edited, return to
<a href="https://azaz.click/user/links"><strong>My Links</strong></a>,
open the link's settings, and make the necessary change.
</p>
<p>
The exact options available depend on the current link settings and features
enabled on Azaz.
</p>
<h2>Test important links</h2>
<p>
If a short link is being used for an important event, campaign, QR code, or
printed material, test it before publishing and verify its expiration
settings carefully.
</p>
