API v2: Simple image preview
hi i was using Dropbox Api v1 to show images which i place on Dropbox. but now V1 is going to deprecate soon so i am migrating from v1 to v2. but i am not able to find any way to replace v1 link which we just pass to image tag to show image preview. what i found in v2 is download a file and show it in your image tag. even i can not download a batch of images.

It sounds like you're referring to using API v1's /media. This wasn't intended for embedding images on web pages, and API v2's /files/get_temporary_link equivalent likewise isn't meant for that either.
I'm afraid I don't have a good solution to offer, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
Thanks for your Reply
sorry its not a solution at all. i mark it solution by mistake. i was not referring media api from V1 i was referring api url as image path with access token.
