One of the new
feature available in SharePoint 2016 is Durable Links which provides resource
id based links for documents. This feature protects the integrity of document
links even if the document is renamed or moved to. When links to documents with
resource id are used SharePoint 2016 looks up the document by resource id and
opens in Office Online.
An example of how durable link in SharePoint 2016 works
1.
User uploads a document named
TestDoc.docx to a document library in SharePoint 2016 sites.
2.
User shares the document to
other users in his organization by using Share option in document preview page
3.
An email is sent to users with
the link to the document TestDoc.docx.
4.
If you notice the link it will
have a reference to the resource id like https://SharePoint Site /Documents/TestDoc.docx?d=wc0309c29bbf74b26be00d97cd54b9a79
5.
Clicking the link will open the
document in Office online web app
6.
If the document creator
changes the name of the document say to TestDocUpdated.docx the link that was
shared earlier will work without breaking as office online loads the document
based on the resource id
