How do you download individual files inside a shared folder?
Hi,
I'm writing a program in Swift. I would like to download individual files in a shared folder. I know their names. Is there a way to create a URL based on the link of the shared folder and the file names? I have noticed that if you share the files individually their prefix URL is different, even though they are in the same folder. Thanks!
Thanks for your reply! At least now I have a clear answer.
One comment: I may not know the technical terms in dropbox. By shared folder I meant a folder that I shared a link to it. Thanks!

Unfortunately there's currently no supported way to download individual files from a shared link to a folder, but I'll be sure to pass this along as feedback.
