Mail with bookmark as a link - life-time of bookmark

Dear Qlik specialists,

a client of us use this functionality (Mail with bookmark as a link) very often to share analysis/filters through different employees (all have access to the dashboard and are authorized to see the data). He spotted now the issue, that these links have a limited life-time. If he tries to open a link (sent by another employee some time ago), the filter aren't set in the dashboard.

In my opinion, it looks like the bookmark is not anymore there (or not anymore valid). Know someone of you the life-time of such a 'temporary' bookmark? And furthermore, is it possible to extend this life-time?

Any feedback is highly appreciated.

‌Wow this is really good information.  I guess this settings are new. Earlier it was N for older versions I suppose.

We recently ran into this issue also and upon lots of research and finally validating with Qlik bookmarks generated from the "Send bookmark as a link" option are temp bookmarks that by default only last 7days from last use.  So one of the things we have suggested to our end users is that if you are sending these to make a note in your email to have the user receiving the link save if as a bookmark, so they can always go back to it. 

I know not a fix and as others have pointed out you can now change the value for how long temp bookmarks stay, but just a suggestion.
