The remote Server returns HTTP Error-Code 460

Dear all,

When downloading a file via the API I get the error with the code 460. Unfortunately the code is not documented in the API documentation.

To fix the bug in my app I would need an error description which is hidden behind the code.

Many thanks in advance

    Can you share the code you're using? Downloading a file via the API itself shouldn't result in a 460.

    Are you referring to downloading from a shared link though? A 460 from a link would indicate that the file is inaccessible because it has been marked restricted, e.g., due to a copyright claim.

    If you believe a file has been incorrectly flagged, contact support.
