    <title>topic Re: Generate downloadable links in Discuss Dropbox Developer &amp; API</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Yes, the&amp;nbsp;Dropbox API does offer a way to programmatically&amp;nbsp;create shared links like that.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Note that the other forum thread isn't exactly describing what you want to do though.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;To create shared links using the&amp;nbsp;Dropbox API, you should use the&amp;nbsp;/2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings endpoint:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-create_shared_link_with_settings&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;That's a link to the documentation for the HTTPS endpoints themselves, but we recommend using one of the official SDKs if possible:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation" target="_self"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Those have corresponding native methods for the HTTPS endpoints.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The SDKs each come with documentation that show how to get started with them, if you wish to use one.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You may also wish to review our Getting Started guide:&lt;/P&gt;

      <title>Generate downloadable links</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Discuss-Dropbox-Developer-API/Generate-downloadable-links/m-p/355426#M665</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;We have a huge quantity of files that are shared across geo's using Dropbox, when the share link is generated, it looks in this format : &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/yeywy64jyfkq/BU_3Dr.BMA?dl=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/s/yeywy64jyfkq/BU_3Dr.BMA?dl=0&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Since this link has to generates on per-file basis, it is extremely laborious as there is a large quantity of files for which the link has to be generated, it there a way to generate these links through an API(code) or a way to decrypt the unique encryption based on the folder structure and the file name&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thank you&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;P.S.( I have gone through the solution given &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-Support-Feedback/General-URL-for-many-files-from-1-shared-folder/td-p/235451" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;here&lt;/A&gt;, but, since im new to programming, i am unable to implement the same, i'd be greatfull if someone could give a little explanation on it)&lt;/P&gt;</description>
