Get image src URLs from Box links
Hi,
I want to get image source URLs from public Box links such as this one.
https://app.box.com/s/65cxbwi6jprv1kc2dcpll0qd0cbec2zk/file/895721606173
The issue is, when I do it manually by right clicking on the image and selecting "Copy image address", the URL expires and the page no longer loads.
How do I get permanent image URLs that I could use in other applications?

Hi Kevin,
Welcome to the Box Community!
Are you perhaps looking to get the "Direct Link" for this file?
A direct link is a web address (URL) that links directly to a file without using Box Preview. This is different from a regular shared link, which brings users to the Box Preview screen for the shared file. Direct links is also a premium feature so its not available on free personal accounts.
To know more about Direct Links, please take a look at this article: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043697554-Configuring-Individual-Shared-Link-Settings

Hi France
Yes - that's what I'm looking for. I'm using a corporate account to use Box. Are you able to check for me if my account includes this premium feature? Is there a way for me to check this myself?
Regards,
Kevin
