Why is Dropbox Integration Now Creating Share Links for Folders Instead of Files?

Hey, something weird happened in Dropbox Integration. When creating share link, before the created share link was for a file, now the created link is for folder. I haven’t change anything of the flow, maybe something changed on Dropbox side.

Hi , for me to reproduce your issue would you mind sharing a screenshot of your dropbox action if possible?

Hi, , sorry, I forgot the details. First, upload a video from a url. Second, create a share link for the video uploaded in the first step, by using first step’s return value ‘file lower path’.

Hi , I can get the shared link directly to the file just fine. Could you check my example below?

I set up a new workflow, it will create share link for file. I think I should delete the old workflow and make a new one.

just one quick check, in your old workflow, could you check if you have updated your dropbox actions to the latest version? Actions

I think I saw this button before, but I didn’t hit the button. Now the button is gone. Thank you, Leo. I think rebuild my workflow will resolve my issue.

No problem . When something goes wrong, the first action I recommend is to hit that Upgrade button to update your action to the latest version. Pipedream team constantly push new bug fixes/improvement to the action code, I it is recommended to upgrade
