## Share Links
Paperless-ngx added the abiltiy to create shareable links to files in version 2.0. You can find the button for this on the document detail screen.
- Share links do not require a user to login and thus link directly to a file.
- Links are unique and are of the form `{paperless-url}/share/{randomly-generated-slug}`.
- Links can optionally have an expiration time set.
- After a link expires or is deleted users will be redirected to the regular paperless-ngx login.
!!! tip
If your paperless-ngx instance is behind a reverse-proxy you may want to create an exception to bypass any authentication layers that are part of your setup in order to make links truly publicly-accessible. Of course, do so with caution.
