      <title>Access free folders and files with Dropbox.Api 4.9.4 in .Net</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have been provided with a Dropbox URL (&lt;A target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/sh/&amp;lt;code1&amp;gt;/&amp;lt;code2&lt;/A&gt;&amp;gt;) where I can access folders and download zip files in my web browser without providing any credentials.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;How do I use the&amp;nbsp;Dropbox.Api 4.9.4 in .Net to do the same thing?&lt;BR /&gt;* List content&lt;BR /&gt;* Navigate to sub folders&lt;BR /&gt;* Download files&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;What are&amp;nbsp;code1 and code2 in the "Dropbox.Api terminology"?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have tried to&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Best regards&lt;BR /&gt;&amp;nbsp; Sorliden&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;The&amp;nbsp;Dropbox API doesn't offer exactly the same interface as the shared link web site itself, but here's what is available:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;to list the contents of a shared link for a folder:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Files_Routes_FilesUserRoutes_ListFolderAsync_1.htm" target="_self"&gt;ListFolderAsync&lt;/A&gt; with the 'sharedLink parameter'&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;to list the contents of a nested folder of a shared link for a folder:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Files_Routes_FilesUserRoutes_ListFolderAsync_1.htm" target="_self"&gt;ListFolderAsync&lt;/A&gt; with the 'sharedLink' and 'path' parameters&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;to download a file from a shared link for a file:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Sharing_Routes_SharingUserRoutes_GetSharedLinkFileAsync_1.htm" target="_self"&gt;GetSharedLinkFileAsync&lt;/A&gt; with the 'url' parameter&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;to download a file from inside a shared link for a folder:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Sharing_Routes_SharingUserRoutes_GetSharedLinkFileAsync_1.htm" target="_self"&gt;GetSharedLinkFileAsync&lt;/A&gt; with the 'url' and 'path' parameters&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Note though that these methods currently only support "user authentication", so they can't be used anonymously like the web site can. You'll need to supply an access token.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Also, when supplying the shared link a 'sharedLink' or 'url' parameter, you should just provide the entire link. There isn't any need to deconstruct these links and use the individual path components ('code1 and code2' in your example).&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Using&amp;nbsp;the API as I described above would offer you the most control over the integration, but one other solution would be to download from the link directly, without using the API. There's &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/files-folders/share/force-download" target="_self"&gt;information here on how you can modify these shared links&lt;/A&gt; for direct access. You can then programmatically&amp;nbsp;download from the modified link, using an HTTPS GET request, following redirects, with the HTTPS client of your choise. For shared links for folders, that would result in a zip download of the entire folder. You could then unzip that locally and use the contents as desired.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I'll also pass this along as a feature request for an anonymous way to do this on the API, but I can't promise if/when that would be implemented.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
