Dropbox Community ModeratorThe CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsAsync method can be used to create shared links for files or folders.

How do I check a shared link exists, I am using
Dim mySharedFolderLink As Task(Of SharedLinkMetadata) = Nothing
mySharedFolderLink = dbx.Sharing.CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsAsync(path)

When calling CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsAsync, if a shared link for the requested item already exists, it will throw an ApiException with CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsError.SharedLinkAlreadyExists.
You can then call ListSharedLinksAsync to get the existing link.
