connect to dropbox in node

// connect with the help of developer token
function DropboxConnect() {
dropbox = DropboxV2Api.authenticate({
token: CONSTANTS.get('DBX_ACCESS_TOKEN')
});
}

 

DropboxConnect.prototype.getPreviewLink = () => {
 dropbox({
resource: 'sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings',
parameters: {
path: "/test2/img1.png"
}
}, (err, result, response) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
}
console.log('file link folder', result.url);
return result
})
}
connection like this. 
but when I am calling preview link it is not waiting for the dropbox call to get finished.
Is this the wrong way to connect?

    Based on the code you shared, it looks like you're using this third party dropbox-v2-api library. Since that's made by a third party, we can't provide support for it. You may wish to refer to the documentation for it or open an issue there for help using it.
