Dropbox Community ModeratorThe Dropbox Saver doesn't offer authentication on the requests like this, nor is there a good way to verify that a request is actually coming from Dropbox that couldn't just be spoofed. That being the case, you can instead generate URLs that contain random, unguessable tokens, and/or that are time-limited.
The Dropbox API and Dropbox for Business API both offer entirely different interfaces, which may or may not be better suited for you, depending on exactly what you're looking to and what you're trying to prevent. For example, the /save_url endpoint works effectively the same way as the Saver, but the /files_put endpoint takes the data directly from the API client. Both of the API calls require an access token for the user account.
