    Thanks for the info. Currently, it's only possible to render images and videos from shared links on your account via a browser, and not the shared link to a folder itself.

    Hi RichardP11, thanks for posting today!

     

    Are you referring to displaying an image that it located on your Dropbox account?

     

    Are you going to be using shared links, or some other method to do so?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

    The article I linked previously contains this information. Change the dl=0 in your shared link to a file to raw=1, and it'll preview in a browser.
