I'm using following combo: C#, .NET, ApiV2
What's the right way to create shared link with password?
Tried:
Console.WriteLine("----- shareFile function starts -----"); RequestedVisibility visibility = (password == null ? null : new RequestedVisibility().AsPassword); DateTime date = DateTime.Now.AddDays(7 * dueInWeeks); var sharedLinkSettings = new SharedLinkSettings(visibility, password, date); var overAllSettings = new CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsArg(path, sharedLinkSettings); try { Console.WriteLine("Sharing \"" + path + "\" file starts"); var shared = await client.Sharing.CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsAsync(overAllSettings); Console.WriteLine("----- shareFile function ends -----"); return shared; }
But gives error:
Exception thrown: 'Dropbox.Api.ApiException`1' in mscorlib.dll
Exception: Dropbox.Api.ApiException`1[Dropbox.Api.Sharing.CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsError]: settings_error/invalid_settings/...
Not sure about RequestedVisibility thing..
Everything works well without password related parameters.
Quick working example would be very appreciated!
Thanks
