      <title>get_shared_link_metadata API problem with the new '/scl' folder links.</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello, I think&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;get_shared_link_metadata&lt;/EM&gt; API has a bug with the new&amp;nbsp;"/scl" links.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;When I send it a link to a shared folder and path to a file inside it:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;LI-CODE lang="javascript"&gt;// https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/get_shared_link_metadata
{path: "/001 (2).zip",
 url: "https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/ppu9pgy84/h?rlkey=90bu"}&lt;/LI-CODE&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The response is:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;LI-CODE lang="javascript"&gt;{
    ".tag": "file",
    "url": "https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/ppu9pgy84/h?rlkey=90bu&amp;amp;dl=0",
    "id": "id:2UW_T...",
    "name": "001 (2).zip",
}&lt;/LI-CODE&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In the past, the returned "url" was direct to the file, but now it's just the same folder url with&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;"&amp;amp;dl=0"&lt;/EM&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I need the direct link. later I need to convert it to a direct download link to the file.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Please help.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1472117"&gt;@DragonWhisperer&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Yes, it's so unfortunately. But one thing, you state isn't so - the links have always included "&amp;amp;dl=0"! Something you can change it later. Let's see how long will take to becomes that fixed up. In meantime you can use workaround like the one I posted &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Discuss-Dropbox-Developer-API/Downloading-large-amount-of-files-to-my-web-application/m-p/725217#M3724" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;here&lt;/A&gt;. &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@41457EF40051AFF130FDBFE21B496926/emoticons/1f609.png" alt=":winking_face:" title=":winking_face:" /&gt; It works for all kind of links to folder and is much faster (no individual call for every link). The example is in Python, but you can use it as you like.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Good luck.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi there,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the report! We're investigating this API issue. I'll follow up here once I have an update.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thank you &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/422790"&gt;@Здравко&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;In your solution you are using&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;list_shared_link_folder_entries&lt;/EM&gt; API, but it's a private API.&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Discuss-Dropbox-Developer-API/Getting-folder-list-by-public-link-without-authorization/td-p/496526" target="_self"&gt;Here&lt;/A&gt; Greg-DB said "that is not officially supported".&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1472117"&gt;@DragonWhisperer&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;wrote:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;P&gt;..., but it's a private API.&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Discuss-Dropbox-Developer-API/Getting-folder-list-by-public-link-without-authorization/td-p/496526" target="_self"&gt;Here&lt;/A&gt; Greg-DB said "that is not officially supported".&lt;/P&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;P&gt;Yes, &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1472117"&gt;@DragonWhisperer&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; - not officially supported. &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@D88F213CAFB196B6AB70612B08AD9D31/emoticons/1f601.png" alt=":beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:" title=":beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:" /&gt; But works! In this context, does the API access point you tried work? &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@41457EF40051AFF130FDBFE21B496926/emoticons/1f609.png" alt=":winking_face:" title=":winking_face:" /&gt; Here supported and unsupported are relative things. The access point I posted works for years and stays unaffected by any "stresses" throughout. You can choose to use non working but supported, of course. 🤫&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The choice is yours. Good luck.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;PS: Dropbox definition of supported and unsupported (if any) is very funny sometimes. The statement you saw (and pointed) is definitely NOT the most absurd one.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
