Hi
We are using dropbox.files.SharedLink with dropbox.files_list_folder to download shared links, and it stopped working since last night. we are getting empty list for "entries" while the folder does have some files. Below is the code:
links = ["https://www.dropbox.com/xx/xx/xxxxxxxxxxx&dl=0"]
dropbox = dropbox.Dropbox(oauth2_access_token=access_token, oauth2_refresh_token=refresh_token, app_key=app_key, app_secret=app_secret)
filecount = {}
all_files = []
for link in links:
filecount[link] = 0
shared_link = dropbox.files.SharedLink(url=link)
entries = dropbox1.files_list_folder(path='', shared_link=shared_link, limit=2000)
while True:
filecount[link] += len(entries.entries) # ***here entries.entries is an empty list
if not entries.has_more:
break
entries = dropbox1.files_list_folder_continue(entries.cursor)
print(filecount)
dropbox = dropbox.Dropbox(oauth2_access_token=access_token, oauth2_refresh_token=refresh_token, app_key=app_key, app_secret=app_secret)
filecount = {}
all_files = []
for link in links:
filecount[link] = 0
shared_link = dropbox.files.SharedLink(url=link)
entries = dropbox1.files_list_folder(path='', shared_link=shared_link, limit=2000)
while True:
filecount[link] += len(entries.entries) # ***here entries.entries is an empty list
if not entries.has_more:
break
entries = dropbox1.files_list_folder_continue(entries.cursor)
print(filecount)
