Dropbox Chooser, return both link types in one call

Dropbox Chooser, return both link types in one call

Hello,

 

It would be great if Chooser [1] could return both link types - preview and direct in one call. As I know it is not possible without OAuth API calls or is there any other simple way?

 

Regards,

 

Nikos

lt's not possible to get both links back at once, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.

Note that if you request 'preview' links though, you can modify them for direct access also, as documented here:

Thanks for a fast response. Your hint helped me and solved what I needed. I didn't realize files privacy is changed after sharing through Chooser (public via link).
