When a file cannot be opened from the media viewer, this is usually for the following reasons:
The file is expired
Due to Compliance purposes, SnapCall will automatically delete media in your workspace. From your workspace preference, each admin can define for how long these should be stored once uploaded by your end users.
When an agent will try to access an expired file, this is what they would normally see.
If you suspect you're seeing this error message by mistake, please drop us a support query specifying the exact URL of the media you're trying to open.
