Link to files/folder - not sharing
Hello again team,
I'm attempting to write an app that will send people links to items within their Dropbox files and folders.
This app makes use of the delta/metadata endpoints to discover files ...

Greg, can I ask you one more question? I need to link to an html file using a URL that makes the browser render the html file without anything around it, and without downloading it. Is there any way to do that? Adding "dl" instead of "www" seems to work with images but not with html files. The reason why I need it this way is that it's supposed to be rendered within an iframe, so I need a URL that I can set as a target of the iframe, to load the content of the html page (the embedded code of a youtube video, in this case). Thanks
