Hi dmartinez,
By default you can access only files/folders residing within your private user folder on Business account with space configuration - nothing outside. In this context:

... is something normal. 🤷
To be able access there you need to set account root for the API calls (not the default - your member's folder). In Python you can do it using 'with_path_root' method. In such a way you can access there (and download) directly, without using links. 😉
Another alternative way (using links) is listing the folder link's content and get links pointing contained files. In such a way you're not restricted to link coming from you (your account) only. This way is not officially supported by Dropbox in spite accessible for years. For more info take a look here. Once you have a file link, direct download is possible (either using Dropbox API or not).
Hope this helps.
