Hi all, My Problem and Question This question pertains to OneDrive for personal use. Microsoft recently made a change to the link format from the embed feature and made my direct download links obsolete. I would retrieve these links from the embed feature in OneDrive and the links looked like what's shown below. The link would directly serve the file to whomever accessed it without them ever having to interact with OneDrive. With the changes Microsoft recently made to OneDrive, is there a new way of getting links that have this functionality? Old link format (no longer works): https://onedrive.live.com/download?resid=XXXXXXXXXXX&authkey=XXXXXXXXXXX My Own Digging I've scoured several forums unable to find any solutions. I have found a temporary solution; however, the links generated via this method only have temporary authentication, so they expire after a day. Perhaps it could be a real solution if I could figure out how to get a permanent auth token for a personal OneDrive file. I'm retrieving the link from the GET request when clicking the download button on a file from a publicly shared link. Link format: https://my.microsoftpersonalcontent.com/personal/{resid}/_layouts/15/download.aspx?UniqueId=XXXXXXXXXXXXX&Translate=false&tempauth=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&ApiVersion=2.0 Thank you to anyone that has input!2.4KViews0likes5CommentsDownload zipped files only.
After I upload large zipped files, our clients can open them up and see what's inside but they can't download the individual files. It does not give them the option. Only option they have is to download the entire zipped folder. Some of these are several Gigs so they are having issues. They used to be able to open and download smaller files withing the zipped folders but now they can't. Has OneDrive changes this capability recently? Thanks.1KViews0likes0Comments
