Error 404 file request links
I seem to be experiencing a Error 404 on all file request url links under my business account, I have switched to my personal account and created a new test folder and am encountering the same issue ...
Hey all - this issue has now been resolved. Let us know if you are still running into any problems. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused. Thank you. https://status.dropbox.com/
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.

I am also having this same problem, file requests that have worked for over a year are now going to a 404 error page

File request submission page is not working for some users. We’re working to fix the problem as quickly as we can. We’ll share another update shortly. https://status.dropbox.com
