Schedule file access with Time Capsule

Time Capsule lets you upload now and make the file available later with a countdown in the Smart Room.

When Time Capsule is useful

Use Time Capsule for scheduled releases, timed client delivery, event files, course material, announcements or any file that should not be downloaded before a specific date.

How it works

During upload, choose the future opening date and time. The Smart Room can show a countdown, but the important part is server-side: downloads stay locked until the scheduled time arrives.

Tips for scheduled delivery

  • Use a clear sender note to explain when the file opens.
  • Set the expiration after the open date, not before it.
  • Test with a short future date before using it for an important release.
  • Keep the manage link safe in case you need to adjust the room later.
