My Dropbox Transfer doesn't have my files on them as they're 0 bytes each
I am transferring 387 video file clips (total only 600 MB). After I created transfer, and it completed uploading from my Mac. It kept saying total 0 bytes and no thumbnails shown for any of the files. My client were not able to download anything from it. I tried several times.
Dropbox File Transfer Limit Clarification
Hi Dropbox Community, I'm seeking clarification on Dropbox's file transfer limit. For example, the business plan has a 100 GB file transfer limit. Is this limit: 1. A per-file size limit (e.g., I can upload/download multiple files under 100 GB each, with no overall limit)? Or 2. A cumulative limit per time period (e.g., 100 GB total per day, with restrictions on uploading/downloading additional files until the period resets)? For example, can I upload multiple 50 GB files consecutively, or is there a daily cap of 100 GB total?
Remove "Login/SignUp" Popup window from dropbox transfer link
Hello, I just now noticed that as a paid user, everytime we send a client of ours a dropbox transfer link with our own branding, it upsells our own clients! With some pop up box about some log in into dropbox. I now that it has a "download only" on the bottom but this is not reseonable. We are users that pay dropbox for a service, dont upsell our own clients. I kindly ask the removal of this feature asap.
Turn off Dropbox Transfer notifications and emails
Hello, I am sick of the torrent of emails and red badges reminding me that I just created a transfer, someone downloaded the transfer I sent them to download, or the transfer is expiring etc. I want to turn off all of these emails with a toggle in the app. The numerous other posts and requests about this issue (dating back to the late 2010's) have gone unresolved, so I'm adding my voice here. Please prioritize fixing this problem! Or hire me to come and add the code in your backend real quick! Pleeeeease 🙏Replicate Dropbox Transfer Functionality VIA API
I really enjoy the use of the Dropbox Transfer functionality to send copies of files to end users that may or may not have a Dropbox account, require that the use a password, be notified that the file was downloaded and have the access to the files deactivated after a deadline. My understanding is that there is currently no way via the Dropbox API to automate this process using Dropbox Transfer. (If I am mistaken, I would love to be shown how I can do this) In the meantime, while we wait for Dropbox to expand the API to cover Transfer, it has been suggested to me that I just create folders and share them to the intended users. A) Is there a way to password protect these folders for a particular user to access them? Especially if they may or may not have an existing Dropbox Account? B) Is there a way to be notified if the files are accessed or downloaded from these folders? C) Is there a way at creation to set a date that would expire/deactivate the share on a particular date?How can I send or share a folder privately to another user?
I want to send my landlord a copy of my ID, a bank account statement, and some paystubs. This is sensitive information, so I would rather not email it, but after exploring the various options that dropbox offers, I think this is my only option. - "Dropbox Transfer" doesn't work because my landlord doesn't have dropbox. - "Dropbox DocSend" doesn't work for a number of reasons. - I want to send a folder with 3 files. - I don't want to pay a ton of extra money for this to work. I already pay for Dropbox Plus. My Question is: What kind of Dropbox plan/subscription would I need to make this work? I have Dropbox Plus, do I need to upgrade that? Is a "Dropbox DocSend" subscription something different? Overall I am disappointed at the moment in two things. 1) This seems like a really basic, simple thing to do, and moreover, it is something that will help prevent crime and identity theft. Why doesn't Dropbox support it? (or at least why do they reserve this feature only for larger business accounts) 2) The pricing structure / feature structure is obscured and is confusing. I think the end solution will be that I just email my landlord these documents. Hopefully they stay safe.
Approved Domains for Dropbox Transfer
We would love to have the feature of Approved Domains for Dropbox Transfer, just like you can for Shared Folders in Dropbox. This is a crucial feature for us to control who our employees can send transfer links to as part of our efforts to reduce data leak risk. We've had to turn off Dropbox Transfer for our users because they can easily send files to anybody, including their personal email addresses, without friction. Please consider adding this as a feature for Dropbox Enterprise users.
