In this regard, 3 questions.
Is it possible to give access to files to other accounts with a specific password that can be changed?
Is it possible not to provide access to download files, but only to view them?

Hi @Nik Nik, welcome to our Community! 

 

Let's jump straight into your questions! 

 

With a Professional plan, you can add passwords to shared links, set expiration dates for your shared links, and disable downloads for a shared link.

 

Therefore your first and second questions have been answered. When you mention access to files for other billing accounts, can you elaborate more? 

 

Do you wish to have access to other accounts that you're paying for, or something entirely different? 

 

Keep me posted!

Hi @Nik Nik, sorry again for asking, I just need to make sure that I clarify, and grasp entirely what you mean before I can guide you and provide you with the next steps. 

 

What do you mean when you say "analog patreon"? Is this a different Dropbox account that you're paying for?

no, no, you're sorry
I mean can other people pay me to access my account content like in patreon
the question is fantastic for cloud storage, but I took a chance

We don't have an official way for that to work, @Nik Nik

 

You can definitely share your files, and there are numerous ways for you to do that, but that wouldn't require people to pay you in order to access your account content. 

 

I hope this helps.
