I'm building an application to automatically trigger a download of a Dropbox file shared with a user (shared file/folder link). This was straight forward to implement for Dropbox links to files, as is outlined here.
Unfortunately this doesn't work for shared folders. Anyone have suggestions on how I could
- Download the all of it's contents (maybe get a list of the files links inside it to download?)
or
- Download a zip of the folder
Currently I can go to the url and do some screen-scraping to try and get the contents list, but the advantage of the solution described in the linked Dropbox blog entry for files is that no scraping is needed, so it's much more reliable and efficient.
