We are trying to upload files to our platform using these dropbox URLs. We are facing this issue when there are multiple number of URLs to be processed.

Hello Himanshu_gofynd,
Thank you for getting back to us with this information. After reviewing the HTML file you provided, it appears you are encountering a shared link that has been temporarily disabled. This issue typically occurs when the daily bandwidth limits for a Dropbox account or plan are exceeded.
Please note that shared links and file requests are banned temporarily (one day for the first time), and will be restored when the ban has expired (exceptions can occur). You should be able to use shared links and file requests afterwards.
However, if you continue to encounter issues with a specific shared link, you may need to contact Support for further investigation and troubleshooting.
