Invite others to open files in iCloud Drive on iPod touch
When you use iCloud Drive in the Files app 
, you can invite others to view or edit a file by sending them a link.
Files shared in iCloud Drive have these important characteristics:
The links to shared files include their filenames; if the name or content of the file is confidential, be sure to ask recipients not to forward the link to anyone else.
If you move shared files to other folders or locations, links to them no longer work and people lose access to the files.
When shared files are editable, everyone’s changes are updated automatically. Depending on the app, users might need to reopen the file or tap the original link to see the latest changes.

Do any of the following:
Change access: If you change the setting from “Anyone with the link” to “Only people you invite,” the original link no longer works for anyone, and only people who received an invitation from you can open the file. They must sign in to iCloud with an Apple ID.
Change permissions: Choose the permission setting you want. When you change the permission setting, anyone who has the file open when you change the permission sees an alert. New settings take effect when they dismiss the alert.
Change a file’s permission or remove access for one participant

If the access is set to “Only people you invite,” the original link works again only for people you reinvite to share the file.
