Way to programmatically detect if password protected file has been accessed
Is there a way to detect if a password protected file has been accessed or how many times? I mean, is there any way to get proof of access after the password input directly?
- No, the Dropbox API doesn't offer anything like that, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.

Thanks! It would be great even as a boolean that it has been succesfully accessed. I am not talking about statistics or anything like that but a confirmation that it has been read, much like messaging systems provide!
