Remote access

It's possible connecting and synchronizing to my files stored in Dropbox from remote computer, without Dropbox app installed?
If positive response what protocol/parameters I can use?

Thks

    Hi balman,

    To perform variety of tasks (including possible sync) Dropbox support REST style web API and some SDKs in addition (like most other similar platform). You can take a look on documentation for such application describing something like protocol (API) and set of calls and their parameters (SDKs). You should take in mind that no every feature available for internal use by Dropbox is accessible in such a way, but the available subset is usually enough. 😉

      Thks for your info

      really I use a password manager app that I'd use with a database saved in my account Dropbox.

      In this app there is the option in the menu (see the attachment img) but I don't know the parameters to use.

      In any case I'll check in the link if there is the solution for my issue
