    <description>&lt;P&gt;The shared links you can retrieve using the SDK in the Sharing namespace, e.g., &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Sharing_Routes_SharingRoutes_CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsAsync_1.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsAsync&lt;/A&gt;,&amp;nbsp;are meant for sharing links to others users. These links don't return the file content directly.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you just need to stream data to a media player, you should instead use&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Files_Routes_FilesRoutes_GetTemporaryLinkAsync_1.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;GetTemporaryLinkAsync&lt;/A&gt;. That will give you a direct link to the file content you can use to stream the file in your media player.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>media link for streaming, in .net, on api 2?</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/media-link-for-streaming-in-net-on-api-2/m-p/180278#M7360</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm writing an app to play media file streamed off dropbox. I'm using the official .Net SDK, and API v2. I'm generating my media link using client.Sharing in the SDK, but the file doesn't seem to stream. Looking at my network console in Firefox, I can see the stream seems to be hanging.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;After doing some reading, it seems I'm supposed to be using .Media instead of .Share, but there's no media in the official SDK. Will I have to revert to an API v1 SDK to get this to work? Do I even need media, or is share good enough for streaming?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks Gregory, GetTemporaryLinkAsync was exactly what I needed!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi, I'm not sure if this method is correct because I can't find it, I'm looking for an HTTP Live Streaming link to adaptive media player&lt;/P&gt;</description>
