broken links
3 TopicsOneDrive Direct Download Link
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!8.4KViews1like6CommentsWhy does Copy Link links break when file is renamed?
If I create a folder XYZ and share it with my colleagues using Copy Link all works fine. I then rename the folder to ABC and everyone's link is now broken. Is this actually expected behaviour!? Why don't folders behave like files which don't break even when you rename them??2.5KViews1like1CommentIs the Microsoft Bing WEB page broken? And, redirects.
I use my Dell Chromebook to do the daily set(s). However, today, I cannot access anything off of the Microsoft Bing WEB page for some strange reason. However, I could do the "this or that" AND the "word for word" ONLY while using my cell. There seems to be a glitch when using my laptop (which, for some oddball reason, was not 'connecting' to the 'Rewards Page") Also, (please, note in 1st screenshot below...): the top, right-hand side of the web page is missing reward totals; I am unable to scroll through the right of the pictures; AND, when I click the area around the "Microsoft Bing" logo on the upper, left-hand, corner I am redirected to (please see) the 2nd screenshot. On another topic, I would like to know if there was a way to download the Bing homepage pictures onto my laptop the same way it is done using the cell phone. The "pc search" points are also broken.1KViews0likes1Comment
