CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsErrorException existing URL / name
If the following code throws the exception
CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsErrorException
How can I get the existing URL and name?
SharedLinkMetadata slm = mDbxClient.sharing().createSharedLinkWithSettings(remoteFolderPath + "/" + remoteFileName, SharedLinkSettings.newBuilder().withRequestedVisibility(RequestedVisibility.PUBLIC).build());
url = slm.getUrl();
ResolvedVisibility res = slm.getLinkPermissions().getResolvedVisibility();
name = slm.getName();

You can use listSharedLinksBuilder to get the existing shared link for a file or folder. (If you're only interested in links to the exact path, you'll want to use withDirectOnly(true).)
