What is Content health?

Content health gives you a quick, at-a-glance view of how well-maintained your content is. Instead of digging through folders to find what's outdated or incomplete, you get clear metrics that highlight the files needing attention - so you can keep your library fresh, findable, and on-brand.

Content Health Overview


Content health shows you:

  • Files without recent engagement: Files created before last month that haven't been viewed or downloaded in the last 6 months

  • Files about to expire: Files with an expiration date within the next 7 days

  • Files without owner: Files that don't have an assigned owner

  • Files without language: Files without a language tag

  • New & updated files: Files added or updated within the last 30 days
