Hey! Does Dropbox API have any changes? I wanna get downloadable link of items inside folders, Is it possible to get it in one API request? Currently I'm using get_shared_link_metadata endpoint and it works really long for the big amount of records because i should make request for each item.

Hi DoControl,
You are asking something different than the OP! Listing of a folder pointed by a shared link was and is possible/supported. Unfortunately, the information provided by /2/files/list_folder doesn't contain nested links info. You should process one by one all nested entries to receive the nested entries links (something relatively slow, as was mentioned). 🤷 That's it.
