Getting file url from a dropbox file with dropbox api

Question

I need to get a file listing from a non public folder on dropbox. After this, I need to get an URL for each file to let me access it through http. Is this possible with dropbox api?

Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to access Dropbox folder without having to authorize application? I mean, I need a service to show a set of pictures to my users and don't want them to be annoyed with the auth form. Is it possible? Thanks in advance.

from your own Dropbox? You could get urls by using the share link functionality and then hard code the links in. Dropbox does throttle those links occasionally though.

What I was lookinf or is a way to list the files and access them. I don't want to hardcode. What a pity. Thanks anyway.
