Last time this was the fix from Dropbox: User: "lisadbx" lisadbx: We are rolling out a fix for issues with raw=1 and dl=1 links. Please try again and let us know if it's still not working.

I have to say I’m disappointed with how long it’s taking to troubleshoot this. I haven’t made any changes on my end, nor has there been any update for that matter. Dropbox has changed something related to the HTTP 302 redirect function, which is the reason I’m unable to open my XML file.…

@"Mark" all she needs to do is to see on that other case for a year ago. Why do the same test all over again?? As i mentioned its the same, the result is the same. I dont understand why i should share the whole url with public..does that make sense? @"Nancy" or @"Jay" could you check this with the technical team?

You have obviously done something because it worked fine 4weeks ago..

well @"Nancy" i dont see how that could be a logic test when i describe you that i havent changed anything at my part..also i tell you that the same issue was last year and you asked me the questions now as then..why dont you just see what you have done then? ref the solution: We are rolling out a fix for issues with raw=1…

Hi @"Nancy" , Yes, nothing is changed..and sorry for late answer. @"Jay" well, that what you said one year ago when i had the same problem, ref my link futher up, then suddenly you fixed it. And no, there is not any update on my TV(Samsung F Serie) because i have turned it OFF also nothing changed on the file or file…

Yes im able to create a different shared link and i see that there is no different on the url shape but still it doesnt work, could it that you have done something with the end part: raw=1..? https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/xxxxx/Filename.xml?rlkey=code&raw=1

Muchos Gracias 🙏.. Working fine now @"lisadbx"

Suddenly it doesn't work again.. What's going on Dropbox?? The new url doesnt work but the old way is working(i have to xml files, one with old sharing format and the other one that has the new sharing format.. old: https://www.dropbox.com/s/random_string/test.xml?raw=1 new:…

It works somehow now 😂.. I haven't done anything. And i use raw=1..its redirecting as before but now it works..

I have put the xml in "the tv" instead to point to the Dropbox folder. I see that the logos, jpg, is showing fine and they are using the old structure and with raw=1..i have copied the jpg:s url and tried in webbrowser.. It's redirecting as the xml file but somehow jpeg is working.. Noticed this is the same "cd/0/inline"…

@"lisadbx" That url is downloading the file... Why can you not see what changes you made before this occurred? I have used raw=1 until this problem occurred.. 

@"Jay" @"Nancy" @"Greg-DB" any tips to make this work? I have tried all this methods: <channel><title><![CDATA[ TV dl</font>]]></title><playlist_url><![CDATA[https://dl.dropbox.com/scl/fi/<token.a>/filename.xml?rlkey=<token.b>&dl=0]]></playlist_url></channel> <channel><title><![CDATA[ TV…

The first one is downloading the file! I have used raw=1 always. I need redirect without the temporary url path or whatever the way ot was before last week worked fine .. What's going on Dropbox staff?? What changes did you do last week and please undo or come with solutions to my problem? Redirecting is working fine with…

Is there any support here from Dropbox staff at all??! I tried every possible way and it's not working for me. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/scl/fi/blablabla/image.jpg?dl=0&rlkey=bbbmm&raw=1 It does 302 redirect and this is n8t working for me. Why has it worked several years not anymore? Do you have any support where i…

@"Hannah" @"Megan" Could you please help me with this?

Perpahps i could explain it better 🙂 @"Hannah" @"Megan" Long time ago I created a share link using dropbox API and got this url https://www.dropbox.com/s/randomstring_foldernam/tv.xml?dl=0 I needed to change it to raw=1 so that my application(nStreamplayer could get the xml file(render):…

No i haven't done anything on my end as i mentioned. No update or whatsoever.. No, it doesn't work as the same way otherwise i wouldn't complain 😊 No it didn't redirect 302 to new url before!! Raw=1 redirects with new url that's the problem. I use nstreamplayer which is pointing to the xml file. Nothing is changed in my…

I deleted the sharing and added again.. Suddenly the new version of url sharing was there.. Https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/bdgfshgjjg123/myfile.xml?rlkey=hgfhhfhhkj&dl=0 Where i change the last to raw=1 It's rendering in chrome as it did with the old way.. But its redirecting to different url and that makes problem because…

Well, the way my url was worked fine until this week.. Can you explain why? Also i tried this methods without any success https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/<token>/path.jpg?rlkey=<token>&raw=1 https://dl.Dropboxusercontent/scl/fi/9mmmmgfddj34g/path.xml?rlkey=9mmmmgfddj34g&raw=1 Where in this case 9mmmmgfddj34g is jibrish…

https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/<token>/path.jpg?rlkey=<token>&raw=1 So this one should work for me? Where token is crypted foldername, right?

Hmm.. Weird, it has worked fine until this week.. And when i share and copy the url it does start like this.. https://www.dropbox.com/s The crypted filename/filename?dl=0 I will try tomorrow with your suggestion.. I thought ? Raw=1 was the only change that was needed for render the shared link..

Hi Hannah, update is off and done manually. I haven't update it sense i bought it 😅.. As mentioned before it opens in webbrowser but it changes the url.. This didn't happen before.. It must be at Dropbox side..

This has worked fine for several years and I have not made any changes on my xml. Seems to me that Dropbox has done something tjis week.. the url changes after raw=1 is used in webbrowser, ref my last comment

Hi Megan, Yes it is a shared file that is in my public folder. When i copy the shared link. I need to change the last part of the url from ?dl=0 to raw=1..after i have done that and i run it in chrome ut will open the xml file but the url is changing to something like this..…

Does anyone know if this works with google drive or One drive? Github? Other solution? I tried but couldnt find the way..

well i hope you are thinking logically here..The TV and the app is the same and it has worked fine for several years! Where can the problem be then?

Because my app on my smart tv can not use re-direct function. so when i point at ?raw=1 and i will get an redirect url my app on my smarttv wont open it. It worked fine in several years! but after this change fra 1 mars it wont anymore. If I use the redirect url it works fine but this is changing everyday which is not…

I see that dropbox has marked my earlier topics as spam: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-files-folders/force-render-a-file-in-a-browser-error/td-p/501355 and this one: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-files-folders/force-download/td-p/501109 why dropbox?
