Thanks for the quick reply!
Would it be better to share a password secured folder? The password would be handed over separately. Or is it even possible to share that folder secured by OAUTH, with different credentials for each user?
Thanks, and have a nice weekend!

There is NO such thing like "password secured folder". Don't mess password protected shared link, it's different thing! You cannot upload something using such link; such way may be used if you need to inspect/download something already in the account (i.e. in opposite direction).
Folder is secure shared to desired account(s), those you want to. You can share with different access privileges - like view only or edit. You don't need additional password for all of this and it's not supported. Again additional password is usable for shared link pointing either to file or to folder; only for a link additional password has some meaning.

😀Seems you mess authentication/authorization with actual actions (including sharing). They are different things! 😉 Pay attention. OAuth 2 is needed to gain access to some/any particular account and initiate any action you may need. And yes, there are endpoints serving shared folders, available using all SDKs if you would use some.
You can use Dropbox Java SDK/Dot NET SDK. Take a look here/here for PKCE OAuth2 flow tool. Here/here you can see Dropbox client documentation. Some examples/examples are available too.
Hope this helps.
