Validation of photos before uploading to the storage

Hi everyone!

I want to switch to using a Dropbox service from another service, and I can't quickly find the necessary information regarding such functionality that would help analyze photos before uploading them to storage.

Does Dropbox have such functionality?

Before uploading to the storage, the photo must be automatically checked. So that users don't upload any garbage, 18+ content.

Validity Photo

    Hi alekso89​,

    This isn't currently available on the Dropbox API, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

    I've moved it to the API forum for you. 

    Its possible, as your post isn't clear that its about using developer tools, that somebody else moved it to a more appropriate area

    Why did this topic appear here if I created it in API forum?
