For the **[meetings portal](https://www.stalbansdiocese.org/meetings)**, select the meeting group's root folder. 2. If the **More details** panel on the right does not show when you select the file or folder, select the **ⓘ** symbol to enable. ![](https://help.stalbansdiocese.org/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-15-2024-11-06-21-3763-AM.png?width=295&height=114&name=image-png-May-15-2024-11-06-21-3763-AM.png) 3.

Select **Copy** next to the link required. 1. If none are showing then it doesn't exist on that file or folder. Either [create a new link](https://help.stalbansdiocese.org/how-do-i-share-a-file-or-folder-on-sharepoint-and-onedrive-to-a-colleague-or-external-user?hsLang=en) or look at the containing folder if you believe a link exists. 6. If the link is no longer required, select the **Trash can** icon next to the link. **Warning:** The share link URL will not be recoverable once deleted. --- ### Change a share link password You might want to change the share link password for the following reasons: - A recipient of that link reports that their email account has been compromised. - A recipient of that link no longer requires access but you still want the existing share link to work, eg. they have left a meeting group. 1. Follow [steps 1-6 above](https://help.stalbansdiocese.org/sharepoint-onedrive-share-links#existing-link) ![](https://help.stalbansdiocese.org/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-15-2024-11-16-28-7414-AM.png?width=295&height=160&name=image-png-May-15-2024-11-16-28-7414-AM.png) 2.
