Issue with get_shared_link_metadata and scl links

Until April 8, we were able to use this API method to get the direct URL link to our file inside a shared folder, but know suddenly it returns shared link not found for 'sh/' links and shared_link_access_denied for 'scl/' ones.

{
"error_summary": "shared_link_access_denied/...",
"error": {
".tag": "shared_link_access_denied"
}
}


https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/get_shared_link_metadata

{
"path": "/MyFolder/file.txt",
}

is anyone experimenting this problem?

Thank you

 

  • Hi cantonfoshan,

    I just checked and everything seems working as expected. Are you sure your code has enough access there? 🧐 Share enough steps, so the issue becomes reproducible (code snippets if possible). Describe the link generation and its usage leading to the result described.

      cantonfoshan As Здравко noted, this seems to be working, so additional details would be helpful.

       

      I see you did also open a support ticket with some details for this though, so we'll look into it and follow up with you there.

    Hello, it turns out i was using a wrong path and that is why i got the not found and access denied error.

    Thank you for your help.
