Hi ssergio,

Your links are links to folders. Unfortunately, Dropbox provides endpoint to add only file as a single call (/2/files/save_url), not folder. You may try walk through the folder tree in a script and add all files one by one. Other solution may be download all folders locally in your Dropbox folder using something like here in a loop.
