CreateLink Method

Creates a new link for specified items.

Syntax

public String createLink(String itemIds);

Remarks

This method will create a new link. The method will then fire the LinkList event, and will populate the Links collection (clearing any previously-held items in the process) with the new link. ItemIds should be specified as a comma-separated list of one or more item Ids. The CreateLinkOptions property can be used to specify the different options for the newly created link.

Note that the string root may be used as a ItemIds to represent the root folder, and the string home may be used as a folder Id to represent the home folder for the current user. Other special id's include:

• favorites
• allshared
• connectors
• box
• top

// Creates a folder, places two files into the folder, and creates a link to download the two files. 
string ParentId = shareFile.CreateFolder(name, "home");

shareFile.LocalFile = "./test.txt";
string id1 = shareFile.UploadFile("test.txt", ParentId);

shareFile.LocalFile = "./test_data.zip";
string id2 = shareFile.UploadFile("test_data.zip", ParentId);

string link = shareFile.CreateLink(id1 + "," + id2);
