Will people know that I've updated files I've shared to them?
hi,
I m photographier and use Dropbox to send to my customers the pictures.
I would like to know
1/ if I add some knew pictures on the folder to send them later do they gonna receive the knew modificateur forer or no \ex when I forget to add some pictures ?
2/ how to know if they don't have access with this link to all make work and make sure they cannot see all the other project only their pics
thankss
A shared link is the best method for them, since it doesn't require them to have a Dropbox account with any quota available.
In answer to your original questions, if you add a file to that folder, the link to the folder automatically shows whatever is currently in that folder. Users won't get notified, since they're not a member, and it's just a shared link on the site.
If they don't have access to the link, only they will know, and they'll need to let you know what error they're getting, which we can then assist with.

Hi Tania Photography, thanks for messaging the Community!
How are you sending the photos to users, are you using a shared link to a folder, or a shared folder which is added to their Dropbox account?
This will help me to assist further!
