    <description>The shared link feature, such as the shared link you posted, allows a user view-only access to a file or folder. It doesn't allow an app to automatically copy/mount that folder in another user's account. (They can manually download a copy to their own account via the shared link page though.)&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Exactly what you should use depends on the particular behavior you want.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;For example, you can have your app automatically make a copy of a folder in another user's account using "copy references":&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-copy_reference-get" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-copy_reference-get&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-copy_reference-save" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-copy_reference-save&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;That copy would not sync back changes with your original folder.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Or, if you want changes to sync back and forth between accounts, you can share the folder and add them as members:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-share_folder" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-share_folder&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-add_folder_member" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-add_folder_member&lt;/A&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have a shared folder with a link within my&amp;nbsp;work Dropbox, with some "get started" files and subfolders.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/c8lxhn68sdfduvp/AADwI1wTcLYWSeJVW9zZuiFha?dl=0" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/sh/c8lxhn68sdfduvp/AADwI1wTcLYWSeJVW9zZuiFha?dl=0&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We have an app with full dropbox access for our customers.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I would like to&amp;nbsp;create a copy of this shared folder to a specific folder (like "/[my company name]") in my customers' dropbox.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I don't understand which endpoint I should use.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thank you for your help&lt;/P&gt;</description>
