Option to select and delete multiple shared links

There was a request for this feature back in 2018 but looks like nothing was done. 

 

I want the option in the "Shared", "File requests", and "Deleted files" menus to select multiple files at once, or "Select All" and delete them in one click.

 

Right now, we have to manually go to each link/file individually and click the 3 dots to the right and delete the link. This is super inefficient and cumbersome and there needs to be an option to select all or choose multiple links/files at once and process them together. Perhaps including updating the settings across shared links as well as a checkbox/multiselection feature so if preferences change across multiple links, they can be edited and updated via a checkbox feature.

    it would be good that Dropbox can show a list of "active" shared links

    At this moment there is only a list of items which were shared in the past.

    When a link is unshared, then it still shows in the current list.

     

    Also it would be good if Dropbox had a function to unshare such links in bulk.

    E.g. when Dropbox has added a list of active shared links, then all lines could be selected to mark the links which need to be unshared.
