Dropbox Community Moderatormbvistaprint Thanks. In that case, can you share a sample? You should still be receiving a 200, though depending on the type the client may have to follow one or more redirects first (though that aspect shouldn't have changed).
Alright, I found the response body and header:

mbvistaprint That does not appear to be a response from Dropbox itself. Can you share a sample value of the "url" variable that would be used in your code?
Sorry about that... So here's a working HEAD request that returns 200 for us with another Shared Image File:
