Hi deehat, let's see what we can find together on this!

 

Based on the error you received, it sounds like your sharing ability might have been temporarily suspended. You can find out more info at this Help Center article.

 

Have you recently shared a link which could have been downloaded many times, or to a large file?

 

This will help me to assist further!

Hi @Megan, thanks for your response. I really don't know. It's a personal dropbox account that I've had for a very long time. I've looked at my shared folders, files and links, and the last time I actively shared a link was in 2021 it appears. There's nothing too large on there and there are not even many files. So I really don't know. 

 

Is there no way for you to check what the issue might be from your end? 

 

Thanks, 

Daniel.
