    <description>&lt;P&gt;I was not able to find the Python implementation of the "shared link metadata" endpoint to do what is listed here: &lt;A href="https://blogs.dropbox.com/developers/2015/08/new-api-endpoint-shared-link-metadata/" rel="nofollow noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;https://blogs.dropbox.com/developers/2015/08/new-api-endpoint-shared-link-metadata/&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;A minimal Python working example for the three presented cases would be very useful!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;That blog post is about a Core API (a.k.a. API v1) endpoint that's unfortunately not implemented in the Python Core API SDK.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You can instead use API v2, where the equivalent endpoint is&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-get_shared_link_metadata" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;/sharing/get_shared_link_metadata&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;though. That's implemented in the Python API v2 SDK as the&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox-sdk-python.readthedocs.org/en/master/moduledoc.html#dropbox.dropbox.Dropbox.sharing_get_shared_link_metadata" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;sharing_get_shared_link_metadata&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;method.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thank you so much for the quick answer!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have a follow on question: do I need to give a 'Full Permission' to the app to use that method? or is 'Apps Folder' permission enough?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I believe&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-get_shared_link_metadata" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;/sharing/get_shared_link_metadata&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;also works for app folder apps, but only for links to items inside the app folder.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;A shared link within the app folder works! I believe that this particular behavior should be described in the API documentation. I have been attempting to do with a generic shared link for a while before ending up to open a discussion here. To be honest, I am not totally sure that I got the logic beyond the approach. What is the use case of retrieving metadata from a shared link to a folder that is already in the app folder?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In my use case, I would like to download files from a 'generic' shared link to a folder (since I don't want to provide the malicious user with an easy way to hack these files). I mean: I want to put some files in a folder on my Dropbox, then hard code the shared link in an application that can use the shared link to (only) download the files that I put on the folder. Can I do this with the current APIs? If not, do you have plans to implement it?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;We definitely should improve the documentation around this. I've sent this along to the team to do so.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I imagine there may be several use cases for retrieving metadata about a file it already has access to, e.g., if it doesn't know and needs to look up the original file path.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Anyway, please give it a try, but I don't think your exact use case is currently supported on that endpoint. I can't make any promises, but I've sent this along as a request.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
