What is the use of duration param?

[vinaykashyap1206]

I want to set an expiry time to my branch IO link. Can I use the duration param? I tried setting it to 60 seconds but it did not expire my link. Here is my code:

def get_branch_io_link(invite_token, invite_role):
client = branchio.Client(settings.BRANCH_IO_KEY)
response = client.create_deep_link_url(
duration=60,
data={
"user": {
"invite_token": invite_token,
"invite_role": invite_role,
}
},
)
url = response[branchio.RETURN_URL]
return url

Sadly I honestly don't remember. It was a branch.io v1 parameter but I can't find it in the documentation. I think it was how long to keep the deep link active.

It is not a timeout for the API call.
