Dropbox doesn't offer an FTP interface, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

 

Dropbox does offer an API that works over HTTPS though that you can use to programmatically upload and download files, among other operations. You can find everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation, tutorials, and SDKs here:
