Thanks for reaching out. I'm not totally sure I follow your question. You can share files individually by creating a shared link via /create_shared_link_with_settings (https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings), or if you want to share all files within a given root folder, then simply share the root folder itself via the /share_folder endpoint (https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-share_folder).
