Changing the Expiry

Authorized users can update the expiry date for any package in a finalized state that they are authorized to view. (access policy).

The expiry can be set to now to expire the package immediately or be moved to date in the future. Setting the expiry date to 0001-01-01T00:00:00.000Z will activate unlimited storage for a package.

Attention

For Unlimited and Extended storage, charges will be incurred daily beyond the free period included with the team subscription for users who have activated their account. Trial accounts cannot extend the expiry beyond the original date given on creation - it can only be set earlier. How does Extended Storage Work?
