Receiving folder URL instead of file URL using list_shared_links

[Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53052507/dropbox-receiving-folder-url-instead-of-file-url-using-list-shared-links ]

The /2/sharing/list_shared_links documentation states:

"If a non-empty path is given, returns a list of all shared links that allow access to the given path - direct links to the given path and links to parent folders of the given path. Links to parent folders can be suppressed by setting direct_only to true."

Since the file "Asm_IMG-10-20181005155706.jpg" is accessible via that folder link, the folder link is included in the result by default.

If you want it to return only links that refer to the specified directly, set the 'direct_only' parameter to true when calling. (If none exists though, and empty list will be returned.)
