    <title>topic Re: Create a get_temporary_link for a folder in a team account in Dropbox API Support &amp; Feedback</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;It looks like there are a few different pieces of functionality here that you may be referring to, so first, to clarify:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;You mention the 'get_temporary_link' endpoint in your post title. That refers to the&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-get_temporary_link" target="_self"&gt;/2/files/get_temporary_link&lt;/A&gt; endpoint. That can only be used to get temporary direct links to individual files, but it sounds like you want to get a link to a folder, so that wouldn't work for your use case.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Your screenshot appears to show an attempt to use the&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-share_folder" target="_self"&gt;/2/sharing/share_folder&lt;/A&gt; endpoint. That's a way to share a folder with other&amp;nbsp;Dropbox users directly, not via a link. It sounds like you want a link, so that wouldn't be the correct endpoint to use.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;If you want to get a shared link to a folder, you should use the the&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings" target="_self"&gt;/2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings&lt;/A&gt; endpoint.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Regardless of what sharing method you use, you will be subject to whatever access and sharing controls have been set for your team (such as the ones &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/teams-admins/admin/manage-team-sharing" target="_self"&gt;mentioned here&lt;/A&gt;).&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Based on your description, try using&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings" target="_self"&gt;/2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings&lt;/A&gt;. If that isn't working as expected, let us know.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Create a get_temporary_link for a folder in a team account</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/Create-a-get-temporary-link-for-a-folder-in-a-team-account/m-p/358089#M20416</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Im trying to create a public link from the API, the account where the folder is lodged is a Business account, when I try to share the folder I get &lt;STRONG&gt;"permission denied"&lt;/STRONG&gt; error.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The main idea is that with a link anyone may download the contents of the folder (zip or single files). Also I would like to set an expiration date or time on the link.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I am able to create the link but only for private use or members of the team account.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi, thank you for the update. But I tried&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings" target="_self" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;/2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings&lt;/A&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;endpoint and it only gives the error "path/not_found/" I tried with several files and folders. I know the paths are correct since I use the same paths for other API calls.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;IMG src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/10417iF3699689D1F663A6/image-size/original?v=1.0&amp;amp;px=-1" border="0" alt="Screenshot 2019-08-01 10.29.49.jpg" title="Screenshot 2019-08-01 10.29.49.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Maybe this is a bug on your end?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Are you sure you have both the right path, as well as the right namespace (in the "Dropbox-Api-Path-Root" header)? I can't see the full values from your screenshot.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you'd like us to check on this specifically for you, please feel free to &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/contact" target="_self"&gt;open an API ticket&lt;/A&gt; with the full code (use the "Show Code" button), but please redact the access token.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Greg thanks for the reply. You were right in pointing out the&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;Dropbox-Api-Path-Root, as it is only specified for 1 folder in the root of the team folders.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This was the error, i had to run my tests inside that folder. I added a screenshot in case someone runs into the same error.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;IMG src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/10447i0DBAB4D25B7C2C06/image-size/original?v=1.0&amp;amp;px=-1" border="0" alt="Screenshot 2019-08-03 17.17.28.jpg" title="Screenshot 2019-08-03 17.17.28.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;thank you&lt;/P&gt;</description>
