Cant you get the Dropbox shared link from the Mac OS path name?
Is it possible to get the Dropbox link from the file Pathnamein the clipboard on MacOS?
1. Select the file in the dropbox folder
2. Copy as Pathname
=> Get the dropbox sharable link

Dropbox StaffHi RHimadiiev, thanks for contacting us.
The shared link created by Dropbox wouldn't be accessible via the path name of the file, since it's a randomized URL on the Dropbox site, and Mac OS path name would be a local file path.
If this isn't what you're referring to, could you provide more information with an example screenshot of what you're describing?
This will help me to assist further!
I can obtain the link by right-clicking and choosing Copy Dropbox Link. What I want is to bypass the mouse clicks and use the filepath to obtain the link. Like via command line or apple script.

Thanks for the info. Currently what you're asking for wouldn't be possible via any command line script, with the normal desktop app.
However, if you use the Dropbox API with a custom app or service, you could create shared links from there using this information.
OK, is it possible to get the dropbox link to the file selected in th finder with no right click menu? Shortcuts, Apple Scipt or Automator maybe?
Is there key command to this right click item?

While we can't really comment on those 3rd party apps and their features, you might be better off if you reached out to them directly and ask if this would be somehow possible RHimadiiev
Let us know if you have anything else you'd like to ask in the meantime.
