Static link with shares that update daily

I need to be able to set a static link on shares that are modified daily. I have a program that automatically updated these shares daily and I now find that the share link also changes with the modification. 

This constantly changing link is very counterproductive and a hindrance to have to resend the links every time the file contents are modified.

These files are always the same name and should not be subjected to a link change.

How do I set a static link for files stored in Dropbox, or do I just have to use another cloud service?
