Using the official Dropbox API v2 JavaScript SDK, if you want to download a file, you should use the filesDownload method. If you want to download an entire folder, you should use the filesDownloadZip method.
If you need a link to a file, you can use the filesGetTemporaryLink method. There isn't an equivalent of that for folders though.
