This has just occurred for me. File request links which worked two days ago now get redirected to a File 404 page. I tried creating a new one and I get the same result. Is there a Dropbox system outage?

Hey johnstreet & drgrigg - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
May I ask if this is affecting only your file requests or shared links as well?
I'm just wondering if your shared links have been banned, that's why I'm asking.

Thank you for asking... when I "Copy Dropbox Link" from my MacOS Finder and paste the link into an icognito browser, everything works as expected... so I think that I am not having problems with shared links.
