Regarding public url for uploaded image.
Hello,
We are using the laraval framework, where we upload the image on my Dropbox project folder, but when we want to fetch this image to show on display we get the array with the keys of "path_display", "path_lower", "name" etc see the response array below.

The output you shared here appears to be from /2/files/list_folder[/continue], which only returns file/folder metadata, but not any actual file data. To access actual file data, e.g., to display it in your app, you can instead use /2/files/download, to download the original file data, or /2/files/get_thumbnail_v2, to download a thumbnail version of an image file.
