Dropbox integration on a existing website

Good Afternoon,

 

Kindly ask if the below is feasible.

 

My company has an website in use for software repository.  Is it possible to integrate dropbox with API on it, so using dropbox only as back end but having as the website as front end ?

 

 Trying to understand if the permission related to the file can be managed by the front end application and dropbox use just a repository for the back end, without being visible to the users.

 

Thanks

API

    Yes, Dropbox does offer an API you can use for listing, uploading, and downloading files, among other operations. Use of the Dropbox API works via HTTPS calls to the Dropbox API servers, which can be done entirely on a site's backend if desired. You can find everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation, tutorials, and SDKs here:
