Description

As a member of an entitled user group, I want to be allowed to extend an enforced share expiration date by another amount of the originally enforced timespan.

Example:

  • default enforced expiration date: 7 days
  • share a file on 1st March > expires on 8th March
  • decide to extend the expiration on 7th March > new expiration date: 14th March

Background: Without an extension possibility, I'd have to create and send out a new link.
Permission to extend should be limited to certain groups.
