API for download shared link files

Hello. I'm writing writing a python script to download the shared link folder from others. I refer to this topic: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/How-to-download-files...

Hi MooMoo_polar,

The error message is clear enough, I think. Just forget to list the entire link (all its directories levels recursively) at once. That's it. First list the pointed folder itself (in non recursive way) and after that "by hands" all nested folder (again, in non recursive way) and so forth.

Hope this clarifies matter.

 

PS: You can get idea how that can be done here. Just "translate" it to Python. 😉
