Image link on without sharing
I am making a webapp that lets user store, edit and view text files on their Dropbox account (from app folder). I would want to embedded images into that text, with images that are also saved on use...
The Dropbox API /2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings endpoint (or corresponding native method in an SDK) does offer an 'audience' setting of 'no_one', which does not grant additional access, so that only the account(s) that already otherwise have access to the file (such as the owner) would be able to access it.
Also, Dropbox does offer the ability to modify shared links for different behaviors, such as direct file data access, e.g., by using the raw=1 parameter, as documented here. Note that shared links are subject to bandwidth limits.
I just tried this out myself though and unfortunately it looks like this particular combination of settings doesn't work. I'll raise this with the team to see if this is something we can support.

😯Greg-DB, Did you try to open some link in foreign site as something embedded (including as an <img>, but not only) without properly set CORS? 🧐 Is this possible at all on a present day web browser? 😉
Add: I don't know if I missed something or CORS just started working... anyway.. It's Ok already. 😉
