4 years agoYes, you can use /2/files/list_folder[/continue] (files_list_folder/files_list_folder_continue and filesListFolder/filesListFolderContinue in the Python SDK and JavaScript SDKs, respectively) to list the contents under any particular path. You can use /2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings (sharing_create_shared_link_with_settings and sharingCreateSharedLinkWithSettings in the Python SDK and JavaScript SDKs, respectively) to create a shared link for any particular file or folder.
I recommend reading the File Access Guide and Sharing Guide.
