    <description>&lt;P&gt;The Dropbox API doesn't support changing the access level on an existing link like this, but it looks like the API isn't properly reporting that back in the /2/sharing/modify_shared_link_settings response. I've asked the team to fix that up.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;That being the case, if you need a view link instead of an edit link, you'll need to create a new view link instead.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>How to update shared folder link access from edit to view</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I've successfully created a backend service to update shared folder member access to view only; however, the the shared folder link is still set to Edit access. I thought using the&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/modify_shared_link_settings" target="_blank"&gt;https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/modify_shared_link_settings&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;endpoint would do the trick passing in the following parameters:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;{&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"url"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;: &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/****" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/****&lt;/A&gt;"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;, &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"settings"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;: {&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"requested_visibility"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;: &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"public"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;, &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"audience"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;: &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"public"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;, &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"access"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;: &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"viewer"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;}, &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;"remove_expiration"&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;: &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;false&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;}&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Folder still shows edit access however for the shared link&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;So in effect, would I remove the share link and then use the API to create a view link and that'd effectively do the same thing?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Whether or not you need to&amp;nbsp;revoke the edit link will depend on your use case; it's not required for creating a view link. To revoke a link you'd use&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-revoke_shared_link" target="_blank"&gt;/2/sharing/revoke_shared_link&lt;/A&gt;. Whether or not you do revoke the edit link, you can create the view link using &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings" target="_blank"&gt;/2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Here's how I'm revoking and then creating the link in a Console application:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;LI-CODE lang="csharp"&gt;await client.Sharing.RevokeSharedLinkAsync(url);
          SharedLinkSettings settings = new SharedLinkSettings(access: RequestedLinkAccessLevel.Viewer.Instance);
          await client.Sharing.CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsAsync(sharedFolderPath,settings);&lt;/LI-CODE&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This appears to work on my end, thank you.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
