Does the URL of a File Request remain the same, even if changes are made to it after its creation?

If one creates a file request, and uses the copied URL...

then changes are made to the file request, say maybe the submitter, the description, or the destination folder, does this change the URL that will have to be re-distributed to potential uploaders?

    Hi starionhost, welcome to our Community! 

     

    You can rename, move and edit the file request name and folder location via the File Requests tab without breaking the link.

     

    I hope this helps!
