hi Nancy

I can see the shared links that Walter mentioned, that is not an issue. But the issue here is that I need thes elinks in bulk, which Dropbox fails to provide a way to get unfortunately. I had to find away to produce such links in bulk, whcih i did, and they worked for a year+, but now they stopped and I am getting the error message I shared above. 

I used the same method to create all links for all images, but for 90% of them I am being denied access now by Dropbox, for the 10% I atill have access, which is odd. See below a couple of examples: 

one works:

and the other does not: 

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ue9b93afibqj12e/AACnE9dIYOYtdLEiaym68w2Xa/DDCA201_1.jpg?dl=1

I simply don't understand why Dropbox is denying access to the bulk of these links, that is my problem

 

I hope you can help

Thanks for the additional information achiesuk 

 

May I ask if the shared links that aren't working point to files that might have been deleted from your account?

 

Are you the owner of the files or somebody else?

    I am the owner of the files, correct. They are inside my dropbox account

    Does this happen with newly created links as well achiesuk or only the specific ones you mentioned?
