Dropbox API v1 to v2 regarding direct link

问题

So I am in the process of switching over the Dropbox API from 1.0 endpoints, to 2.0 endpoints and running into an issue.

I was using the 1.0 endpoint https://api.dropboxapi.com/1/media/auto/ which gave me a nice direct URL for example: dropbox/blah/image.jpg

This allowed me to store the image directly (for up to 4 hrs) without having to DOWNLOAD the image itself

Now in 2.0 I have to use:

https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/get_temporary_link

This is a major issue as the link they supply has changed...it's no longer a direct .jpg link, it's come encoded URL like

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/apitl/1/AAA-TFdndE32VU-ruMMtCUyDIIczr71Wp8u7XmVA

which i can't hit directly in a web browser, it has some header content so it's an automatic download....

Does anyone know how I can get a direct link to the ACTUAL file without AUTO-DOWNLOADING? I Don't want the thumbnail either- that's too small.

回答1:

The link returned by API v2 is also a direct link (i.e., it returns the file data directly). However, it sets the Content-Disposition to "attachment", so browsers will download it. There isn't an option for controlling this though.

回答2:

With v2 API, you can use a URL such as this:

https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/download?authorization=Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN&arg={"path":"/PATH/TO/THE/FILE"}

(encode the URL parameters properly)

In Javascript, it will be something like this:

var token = "...";
var path = "...";
var url = "https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/download"+
          "?authorization="+encodeURIComponent("Bearer "+token)+
          "&arg="+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({path:path}))
