list_shared_links: how to get data in the best way (?)
Hello all: after an API look into, i've got this about list_shared_links (and i ask if it is right):
if i like to display all shared links of an user, of a specified folder, i can't get only shared files of this folder, i need to get all shared files for the user, so iterate over to extract.
Is this correct? I hope yes since i've the working class ready :), so if there is another convenient way to achieve shared files links for specified folder, instead to recall curl each 200 files (than if an user have in sharing 2000 files, curl will call 10 times to retrieve all files) unify these arrays, and iterate extracting the necessary.
Hum ... maybe i had to do this question before!
Thank you.
That's correct, you should use /2/sharing/list_shared_links and filter the results to just the files in the folder(s) you're interested in. Make sure you check the has_more field in the result to see if you need to call back for more results.
