"Restricted Content" Error

Hi,

 

We are getting the following error while downloading "Getting Started Pdf" in Dropbox

 

{  

   "error_summary":"path/restricted_content/",

   "error":{  

      "path":{  

         ".tag":"restricted_content"

      },

      ".tag":"path"

   }

}

 

Is this file restricted? If so can hyou explain the reason?. 

  • Apologies for the trouble. This should be working again now. Please let me know if you're still seeing any issues.

    As of today 1/16/2018 I am also seeing this error, with the same file. Does someone keep reporting this file as infringing copyright?

    chibimagic Are you referring to the Getting Started PDF in particular? If so, please try again now and let me know if you're still seeing this issue.
