Dropbox Folder embed problem - Viewers cannot view folder contents
Greetings, If I embed a folder onto my website, I want people to be able to open the contents (images) inside the folder. But they cannot. They only have permission to view a list/grid of the fold...

Thanks for the report! That issue with using "rlkey" links in the Embedder is open with the team. I'll follow up here once I have an update on that.
The Embedder does not offer an option for viewing nested images inside the Embedder instead of in a new tab, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

Awesome, I'm glad to hear that! Thank you.
If its possible to update with a rough timeframe of when the issue may be solved, that would be very useful, as if its much further down the road I will have to turn to a different service to so our client portal service can continue uninterrupted

jonokivex Unfortunately I don't have a timeline to offer. I'll follow up here once I have any news on that.

Would also love to know when this would be resolved. I built a web service with Dropbox as the foundation and this change to link architecture and embedder issue has affected hundreds of users who now see a "Request Access" screen instead of being able to view the content that they have been given access to via the Embedder
