Is it possible to see the download history for my files and folders?

Does anybody know if it's possible to see download history, who got my files from our folders ?

Hello, I have the same question. For shared links that people will use to download files from our dropbox. Can we see at least the number of downloads or a log with all the downloads (date, time) of that specific folder or file that was shared via a link?

Thank you

Dropbox does not have metrics like this I'm afraid. 

You can see some info at http://www.dropbox.com/events about when files were edited, or, if you've a business account https://help.dropbox.com/organize/file-activity
