Share and Add a Member to a Folder
Learn how to share a folder and add one or more members to it with the Dropbox API.
In this lesson, we’ll explore two new endpoints of the sharing namespace, which include the following:
share_folder
add_folder_member
Share a folder
The /sharing/share_folder
is used to create a shared link to a folder. This endpoint requires us to enable the sharing.write
permission to do this task. Most of the time, sharing a folder is a synchronous process, but sometimes it can be asynchronous.
Request parameters
Let’s see some of this endpoint’s parameters in the following table. We’ll use only the required parameters in our example code.
