Considerations on Returned Links

This method returns links that aren't yet valid as well as ones that are no longer valid. When you create your program, you must check for these properties (ValidTo and ValidFrom) if you don't want to use them. This method may also return objects that you aren't authorized to. When you create your program, you should always check the Authorized property. This is the only property you can view from an object that you're not authorized to view.
