      <description>&lt;P&gt;The first kind of link you posted, with "/home/" in it, is the private URL of a file in a user's account. It doesn't offer access to the file unless you're logged in to that account.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The second kind of link you posted, with "/s/", is a shared link for a file, which does allow access to the file.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;There isn't a way to get a shared link from the private URL unless you have access to the account.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you do have access to the account, you can get a shared link as shown here:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/help/167" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/help/167&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Or, using the API, using the /sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings endpoint:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
