The <Link href="/reference/get-shared-items">find item for shared link</Link> API is designed to
accept a shared link as an input using a `BoxApi` header and return the file or
folder object that the shared link is set for.

To get the file or folder object associated with a shared link, supply
the full shared link URL in the request.

<Info>
  Please note that when the shared link is for a folder, the response of this
  API does not include the list of nested items within that folder.

  To further traverse the items in the folder, use the same `BoxApi` header to
  <Link href="/reference/get-folders-id">get a nested folder's information</Link>, <Link href="/reference/get-folders-id-items">list the items in
  those folders</Link>, <Link href="/reference/get-files-id">get a nested file's
  information</Link>, or <Link href="/reference/get-files-id-content">download a file</Link>
