Get link to the uploaded image in dropbox using JS and sdk - dropbox

Question

I want to get the link of the uploaded file that is uploaded to dropbox using dropbox sdk.
I need the links to be stored in another file for a purpose. So far, I have manage to upload the files, but not get the links.
relevant html & JS function I'm using to upload the file:
<input type="file" id="file-upload" />
function uploadFile() {
let pathURL;
const UPLOAD_FILE_SIZE_LIMIT = 150 * 1024 * 1024;
var ACCESS_TOKEN = document.getElementById('access-token').value;
var dbx = new Dropbox.Dropbox({ accessToken: ACCESS_TOKEN });
var fileInput = document.getElementById('file-upload');
var file = fileInput.files[0];
if (file.size < UPLOAD_FILE_SIZE_LIMIT) { // File is smaller than 150 Mb - use filesUpload API
dbx.filesUpload({path: '/' + file.name, contents: file})
.then(function(response) {
var results = document.getElementById('results');
var br = document.createElement("br");
results.appendChild(document.createTextNode('File uploaded!'));
results.appendChild(br);
console.log(response);
})
.catch(function(error) {
console.error(error);
});
} return false;
}

To create a shared link for a file or folder using the official Dropbox API v2 JavaScript SDK, you can use the sharingCreateSharedLinkWithSettings method.
Here's an example of calling that:
dbx.sharingCreateSharedLinkWithSettings({path: "/test.txt"})
.then(function(response) {
console.log("response:");
console.log(response);
console.log("shared link:");
console.log(response.result.url);
})
.catch(function(error) {
console.error(error);
});
To get existing shared links, you would use sharingListSharedLinks, which you can call the same way.
