Some users report older iCloud links for sharing Shortcuts not functional, exact cause unknown

If you’ve been having trouble sharing iCloud links for Shortcuts recently, you’re not alone.

It appears that all older links no longer appear to be functional. rendering it impossible to add shared Shortcuts from links that were created a while ago. It’s unknown as to exactly what the cut off date is for created Shortcut links, and links that were created within the past week seem to be unaffected and still functional. Apple’s own in-app gallery for downloading Shortcuts is also still working as expected.

A number of users have received the error screen pictured above, suggested that something has changed which has affected the iCloud link’s functionality. It’s also possible that this was a server-side error that has invalidated all links created prior to an internal change.

If you’ve seen this issue on your end, please let us know about your experience in the comments.
