    <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/10" target="_self"&gt;@Greg-DB&lt;/A&gt; Using " files_download_to_file" looks like it is not able to find the file shared.

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi, it seems a bit old post, but I will try &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@FBF7D2AB59A0D6E861EBF6A36F93B7E2/emoticons/1f642.png" alt=":slightly_smiling_face:" title=":slightly_smiling_face:" /&gt;.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;So it is not possible to download a shared file using the Dropbox library for Python?&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;If I use "files_download_to_file", I only see as "entry" the container folder but not the file that it contains. From the web I can see the folder and the file inside.&lt;BR /&gt;Any idea?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1707956"&gt;@mdiazl&lt;/a&gt; You should be able to download a file in the connected account using the &lt;A href="https://dropbox-sdk-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/dropbox.html#dropbox.dropbox_client.Dropbox.files_download_to_file" target="_blank"&gt;files_download_to_file&lt;/A&gt; method. That should work for files in shared folders as well, as long as the shared folder is mounted in the connected account. Alternatively, if you want to download a file from a shared link, you would instead use &lt;A href="https://dropbox-sdk-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/dropbox.html#dropbox.dropbox_client.Dropbox.sharing_get_shared_link_file" target="_blank"&gt;sharing_get_shared_link_file&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;There are a few forms of sharing on Dropbox and it's not completely clear what the set up is in your case, so please share some more information if you need help with this. For example, please share the relevant code you're running and the output you're getting so we can take a look. Be sure to redact any refresh token, access token, or app key/secret though.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
