To retrieve file content, you can use /2/files/download:

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-download

If you just want a thumbnail of an image file, you can use /2/files/get_thumbnail:

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-get_thumbnail

Or, to get a temporary direct link for a file, you can use /2/files/get_temporary_link:

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-get_temporary_link

You can use /2/files/list_folder and /2/files/list_folder/continue to track changes:

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-list_folder
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-list_folder-continue

Those are links to the HTTPS endpoints themselves, but we recommend using an official SDK if possible:
