The Live Share link is displayed in the list of active links for the selected asset, which is available to copy and reshare if required. An asset can have multiple links created by various Unity users.
To manually expire a link, users can click the red Trash Bin icon. Expired links are still available (they will be greyed out). They are stored for traceability and will be removed from the list in 7 days.
Fleet Managers have visibility to the following information:
- user who created the link
- when it was created
- when it will expire
- comments
- number of clicks on link
A special indicator will be visible from the asset list. This allows fleet managers to easily identify which asset’s live location is currently being broadcasted/shared.
When a Live Share link is shared by a user, below is an example of the external view. The asset marker will move automatically, a page refresh is not required.
