Hi Saif Lajmi,
Dropbox Embedder is a prebuilt component, not just some name as you think as seems! Ensure usage of this component and don't "transform" it to inline frame. Dropbox links cannot be rendered in such a way.
Hope this gives some direction.
thank for your answer please can you explain to me the prebuilt Dropbox embeder because i dont find any documentation contain the embeder using typscript to allow the rendring of my dropbox file inside my nextjs app ?

Hm..🤔 Where you get that link from? Probably there is no any documentation. 🤷
Rhetoric, of course. I'm not familiar with the environment you use, but there is always a way to render such a thing. Just make sure when you pass the things (already rendered from your environment point of view) there to be code as pointed in the page you get your link from. 🙋 That's it.
thank you very much ... i find this documentation about how to emded any think using short javascript script in this link https://www.dropbox.com/developers/embedder but i want to transform this into reactjs or nextjs to implement throw my website i failed that why i'm asking for ...Thank's
