add_file_member, message with hyperlink

Hi, I'm using the api to upload and share files/folders. When I use the add_member endpoints, I include in my message a share link. When I view the email, the link is broken. It's a minor detail, but I don't want people to have to copy and paste the url. Is there any way I can fix this. thank you

    The Dropbox API doesn't offer options for controlling the formatting/markup of that message. I notice the same thing happens when performing the share operation from the Dropbox web site though, so I'm moving your thread to the "Create, upload, and share" section to see if anyone there can help with this sharing feature itself.
