GetTemporaryLink method not allowed

As of yesterday, this method still worked perfectly. But now, I don't understand why it doesn't work anymore.

 

*Btw I used Dropbox Core SDK Java v5.4.4

    not_allowedVoid The user is not allowed to request a temporary link to the specified file. For example, this can occur if the file is restricted or if the user's links are banned.

    Cite from here. 😉

    Hope this clarifies matter.

    I understand you're calling the getTemporaryLink​ method in the Java SDK and are receiving the not_allowed error. That error means:

    The user is not allowed to request a temporary link to the specified file. For example, this can occur if the file is restricted or if the user's links are banned
