is the opentext document url guaranteed to never change? ie is it considered a permalink?

@John Kendall Could you please clarify what you mean by 'document URL'? Are you referring to the URL of a CMS file instance that you created ?
/instances/file/{type}
Yes. The URL used to fetch (download) a file instance.
Specifically, can I store that URL instead of the document ID for the purpose of retrieving that file now and in the future OR is there a scenario where the URL may change?
Thanks,
John
Document ID remains the same until another version is created for the document. When a new version gets created for the document the ID changes.
That was not my question . I understand document ID.
What I want to know is: Does the CMS URL for the file/document behave the same way as document ID? or is there a scenario that will change the URL while the document ID remains the same?
No, the CMS URL for retrieving a file instance will not change.
