How do I make apiError as a string
Hello, I am new in here I try to develop a script that can auto email a Dropbox link to someone I am using .sharing_create_shared_link_with_settings to determine does the file had been shared or no...

9 years agoHere's an example of how you can tell apart different errors:
import dropbox
from dropbox.exceptions import ApiError
dbx = dropbox.Dropbox("<ACCESS_TOKEN>")
try:
print(dbx.sharing_create_shared_link_with_settings("/test222.txt"))
except ApiError as err:
if err.error.is_shared_link_already_exists():
print("Link already exists.")
if err.error.is_path() and err.error.get_path().is_not_found():
print("File not found.")
elif err.error.is_settings_error():
print(err.error.get_settings_error())
else:
print(err)
