data transfer URL

I am trying to use Dropbox to aggregate data from the NIH Toolbox App.  This requires a data transfer URL that is set to accept basic authentication and acknowledges successful file transfer with a .json object.  A screenshot of the interface is below.

 

Is this possible on Dropbox?

If not, is there another HIPAA-compliant solution that can achieve this function?

    The Dropbox API doesn't offer anything quite like this. It accepts uploads via a specific interface using OAuth, not basic auth.

     

    I can't recommend any other third party solutions in particular, but perhaps someone else on the forum can.
