What it does

This runs a periodic access recertification for external Dropbox shares. It surfaces every external link that has been open longer than your staleness threshold, asks the owners to confirm the share is still needed, automatically expires the ones that no one re-approves, and records every keep/revoke decision in Linear so you have evidence for auditors.

When to use it

Use this to satisfy SOC 2 or ISO access-review requirements and to clean up the long tail of forgotten links that accumulate over time. Best run quarterly alongside your standard access reviews.

How it works

  1. 1A quarterly schedule launches the recertification.
  2. 2Dropbox returns external links and the same step filters to those older than 90 days.
  3. 3Slack asks each owner to recertify or revoke their stale links with a response deadline.
  4. 4A logic step revokes every link not recertified by the deadline via Dropbox.
  5. 5Linear records the full recertification outcome as a tracked audit ticket.
