Re: Direct download using ?dl=1 returns html page

Direct download using ?dl=1 returns html page

Hi,

 

I'm downloading a folder from dropbox using `curl` with the public share url, and the `dl=1` query parameter.

This used to work perfectly until this morning, when it started returning a html page instead. Is this change intentional, and if so, what would be the recommended way to directly download files then?

 

Thanks in advance

Hi all,

Anyone, who want direct access to the corresponding file, can replace ending 'dl=0' or 'dl=1' using 'raw=1'.

Hope this helps. :wink:
