How do you create a shared link with a short url in the Obj-C v2 SDK?

I noticed that createSharedLink:shortUrl was deprecated, but I didn't see a proper way to get a short URL using createSharedLinkWithSettings:settings. Settings doesn't include a shortUrl flag.

 

For now, I can survive with the long URL, but it would be nice to have the short URL like I was able to get in the Obj-C v1.

    We don't currently offer a non-deprecated way to get a short URL, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
