Delete shared links in bulk

This idea has been closed out after a period of inactivity.

We appreciate you sharing it with us, and you’re always welcome to submit more ideas in the future.

Someone just needs to wrap this into a tool for me:

pip install dropbox

Then:

import dropbox

# Replace with your Dropbox access token
ACCESS_TOKEN = "your_access_token_here"

def revoke_shared_links():
    """Fetches all shared links and revokes them."""
    dbx = dropbox.Dropbox(ACCESS_TOKEN)

    try:
        # Get all shared links
        response = dbx.sharing_list_shared_links()

        if not response.links:
            print("No shared links found.")
            return

        # Iterate and revoke each shared link
        for link in response.links:
            try:
                print(f"Revoking link: {link.url}")
                dbx.sharing_revoke_shared_link(link.url)
                print("Revoked successfully.")
            except Exception as e:
                print(f"Failed to revoke {link.url}: {e}")

    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Error retrieving shared links: {e}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    revoke_shared_links()

Oh yes!! 

A tick box to delete is desperately needed

I've had the same issue for a long time and have contacted support about it. They asked me to post here. 

There is an API. So it would be pretty easy for someone at Dropbox to write a tool that would expire links older than n months.

This idea is open.
