Content-Disposition in dropbox
Is there a way to rename a file while downloading from dropbox without changing the filename itself : For example: Dropbox link : https://www.dropbox.com/s/b06pn1n7w75ihyz/270px-July_Morning_Boby_D...

7 years agoI'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though, so I recommend trying to accomplish this locally instead.

Ok, I will ask the same with Rails Core Team and will discuss that, it’s better to store the files with real name directly at dropbox and will create the folders with unique number for identifying the path etc. i.e 356663/ashish.jpg in place of 35663 only :)
I will release the new version of ‘activestorage-dropbox gem’ with this small improvement so at least end users can see the real name after downloading the file.
I will also wait for you so if there will be any news about implementing the Content-disposition support by Dropbox then it will really help me and other bulk of developers those need the same. I checked the stackeoverflow and lots of developer asking for the same kind of thing with Dropbox
Thanks for your time Greg :)
Have a nice day ;)
