Get children of Shared link of folder - Java

Moved to the API forum.

API v2 doesn't return the file/folder listing, e.g., in SharedLinkMetadata/FolderLinkMetadata, unfortunately. I'll send this along as a feature request though.

 

(A workaround would be to use the deprecated /1/metadata/link.)

Hey

Dropbox API v2 now supports listing the contents of a shared link for a folder. This can be accomplished using the same interface as listing a folder in a connected user's account, via the list_folder functionality. To list the contents of a shared link for a folder, you instead provide the shared link URL in the `shared_link` parameter to list_folder:

If you're using an official SDK, there will also be a corresponding method for this endpoint:


In the .NET SDK that's available as `ListFolderAsync`:

In the Java SDK that's available via `listFolderBuilder` to get a `ListFolderBuilder` on which you can call `ListFolderBuilder.withSharedLink`:
