Single link to files from different folders
Hi!
Right now if you have a link to a folder and if you add ?dl=1 query string to the URL, dropbox automatically generates an archive with files which user can download (from a website for example).
Is it possible to use dropbox API to generate a similar archive for a list of files that may be stored in different folders?
For example:
I have a list (array) of dropbox links:
[ https://www.dropbox.com/file1, https://www.dropbox.com/file2, https://www.dropbox.com/file3, ]
and then I pass this array of links to dropbox API and the API respond with the link to a single archive with all these files
api .getArchive(listOfFiles) .then((response)) // response - link to archive with files inside
Is it possible to do something like this?
