Code-based activation is configured in the LINK Controller on the “Settings” tab. The first step is to change the launch link type to be “Activation Pincode” in the “Controller Settings” pane on the “Settings” tab. To do so, change the link type using the dropdown pictured here:
Activation Pincode
Please make sure that the “Attach a QR code …” and “Attach an hxl file …” are both toggled off.

Select the type as “Web Application”.
Enter a name for this application, which must be unique within the Controller. If the name you would like to appear at the top of the tile in the LINK app differs from the unique name, enter that in the “Display Name …” field. The “Category Name” (typically row name) is required, and it is used to separate tiles in the LINK app into groupings (with a header in between them). This field will auto-complete to existing categories within the Controller, but you can type a new value here to create a new category (row).
...
Next, select the user roles that should be permitted to see this application. Move roles that should see the application from the left to the right box on the page by double-clicking on the role or using the buttons to move list items from “Available Roles” to “Selected Roles.”
Web Application Basics
This section focuses entirely on the display of this application on the device:
“App description” is the grey text at the bottom of the app tile in tiles mode, or to the right side of the list in list mode.
“App icon” is the icon used in the tile or in the list entry in the LINK app. Upload a .png file; recommended 150 X 150 pixels.
“Show splash screen on device” displays an icon on the loading screen when the app is loading from the network.
“Splash screen image” is the image to show during loading
“Display as full screen” should be generally toggled OFF. Leaving this toggle on hides the header bar of the LINK Browser, removing the exit button and the back/forward/refresh/stop buttons.
“Hide the bottom tab bar …” – this is a legacy option. Ignore.
“Display this app on the device” – toggle this off to hide this app from display on the device without otherwise changing this application record. This is useful when you are testing various tiles and want to temporarily toggle a tile on/off.
“Filter passwords …” is a security feature that attempts to block users from sending a password to this web application. This feature has limited use cases. Please use in consultation with Mobile Helix Support.
URL

LINK supports Touch ID, or Face ID, or PIN code as second factor authentication settings. If enabled, the biometric ID or PIN code must be provided each time the user provides their AD credentials. However, the recommended approach is to create a long online session time, and then use the biometric ID or PIN code to log into LINK without having to always enter the AD password.
...
An individual user may log out from their device. From the LINK app home screen, tap the 3 bars menu in the upper right. Select logout. Now, fully login with first and second factors.

You can change the global policy (or you can assign different policies to different user groups, if appropriate) on the "Profiles" tab in your Controller. You should have a profile usually called "Offline Profile." Edit that profile (with the pencil button to the far right), and you will see a field labelled "Number of days that files saved to the My Files tab remain on the device. This specifies idle time - the expiration is reset each time the file is opened." This is the setting that determines the expiration period.
Note: When you change this setting and save your change, users will not see this change until: (i) they login to a fresh session by entering their A-D password in the LINK app, and (ii) they download a new file. This policy change is not applied retroactively to files that are already downloaded, and we do not dynamically change the policies of existing user sessions.

At Files, tap the pencil icon.
