Those have corresponding native methods for the HTTPS endpoints.
Note that the Dropbox API doesn't offer the ability to send the file request(s) to other users via Dropbox, like you can trigger from the Dropbox web site. You'd need to send the file request link via your own communications channel(s).
This feature is badly needed. I just purchased a paid plan with dropbox to do exactly this and found out afterwards that this option was not available through the API. Maybe a deal breaker for me if this feature is not added soon :( I hope Dropbox are listening!
