Creating a shared link

[everettevola]

I am having trouble creating a shared link on a file. From what I can tell on the box developer documentation, only the "Access" property must be set on the SharedLink object prior applying it to a file. The following code is failing with a BoxException.

SharedLink sharedLink = new SharedLink()
{
Access = BoxApi.V2.Model.Enum.Access.Collaborators
};
file = _manager.ShareFileLink(file, sharedLink);

Can you point me in the right direction?

I have been looking through your source code and something struck me as odd. In Permissions.cs, BoxApi.V2.Model, the CanDownload property has JsonProperty attribution for "item_collection". Shouldn't this attribution point to "can_download"?

I am not sure if this is related to the issue I am having in my initial comment above, but it does look suspicious.

Both things are bugs. I've added tests and fixed the issues. Will commit them shortly!

Fixed in 35d85fe. Let me know if you still have any problems.

There is an issue with shareLink, it is throwing the error as "Bad Request".

The code that I had used to generate the shared link as follows:

Dim expectedLink As SharedLink = New SharedLink(BoxApi.V2.Model.Enum.Access.Open, Permissions:=New Permissions() With {.CanDownload = True, .CanPreview = True})
Dim linkedFile As File = objBox.ShareLink(objFile, expectedLink)

Kindly point me with the right direction..

Hello. I'm having the "Bad Request" issue as well. Anybody still monitoring this? I'm using v2 c# api.

BoxFile file = boxManager.CreateFile(folder, fileName, fileStream);
file.Description = descriptiveTags;
boxManager.Update(file);
SharedLink sharedLink = new SharedLink(BoxApi.V2.Model.Enum.Access.Open);
BoxFile linkedFile = boxManager.ShareLink(file, sharedLink);
boxManager.Delete(linkedFile);

It barfs on the "ShareLink" attempt. Everything prior is working fine. BoxFile is an alias for BoxApi.V2.Model.File, and BoxFolder = BoxApi.V2.Model.Folder.

Thanks!
