Microsoft.Sharepoint.Client.dll not giving access to method

Question

Hello,

I am trying to use the method Web.CreateAnonymousLink ( https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/sharepoint-csom/mt143091(v=office.15) ) to create a link for a Sharepoint file. The problem is that even though I think I am using the correct dll (dowloaded by NuGet, can be find here https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.SharePoint.Client/ ), Visual Studio (2017, .NetFramework 4.5.2) doesn't recognize the method, so I can't use it.
Any ideas about what is happening?

Thank you.

Hi @Jaime Fernández Ribelles ,

For SharePoint Online, the SharePoint.Client.CSOM library is below:

Install-Package Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM -Version 16.1.20616.12000  

Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM

This library version will have Web.CreateAnonymousLink method:
