Staff can give a client an expiry date on the create and edit screens,
and through /api/v1/clients. When the date passes, the client is refused
at sign-in and on their next request, and their API access ends too.
Files and history stay, and a later date (or none) brings them back.
Access is checked through one predicate, User::maySignIn(), at every
door: sign-in, the web session, API tokens and the two-factor
challenge. An hourly sweep also switches `active` off, so the list,
its filter and seat counts agree. The sweep is not what enforces it,
so a scheduler that is not running cannot keep an account open.
An account cannot be active with a date that has passed. Reactivating
an expired client needs a new date in the same save.
The day-means-end-of-day-where-you-are rule moved out of FileExpiry
into a shared DateInput, so file and account expiry read dates the
same way.

The API has had everything Zapier needs since it shipped — a bearer
token, an auth-test endpoint at /me, and list endpoints that return
newest-first with a stable id, which is exactly the shape a polling
trigger wants. What was missing was anyone saying so.
This is written for somebody wiring up a Zap, not for somebody writing
code, which is why it is a second document rather than a section of the
guide. Same reason it renders in-app rather than linking to GitHub: the
installations most likely to need it are the ones least likely to have
outbound internet access.
It says out loud the two things that will otherwise be discovered the
hard way — a token expires within a year and nothing renews it, and a
deletion cannot start a Zap because polling cannot see one.
Client file sharing, rebuilt from the ground up: a private area per
client, resumable uploads, folders, groups and categories, sharing with
expiry dates and download limits, comments, file versions, an activity
log, a REST API, and sixteen languages.
