Change a current link from edit to view only.
I already created a link for a folder containing multiple files and I need to keep that link but change the setting for it from edit to view only. How do I do that? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for posting here, RandyBus!
Unfortunately, this isn’t possible at the moment.
If you already have a shared link with edit permissions for your folder, and you need a link with view-only permissions instead, then you’ll need to create a new one.
If you don’t wish anyone to be able to edit your files after that, you'll have to delete the original shared link.
Hope this clarifies things a bit.
