share a link and see who viewed the file
Is there a way to send an email blast containing a dropbox file link to a group of ten recipients - and then I can see when each recipient accesses and views the file. I would like to see their email address in ACTIVITY and not the standard phrase A "GUEST" VIEWED the file.

Thank you Jay, one other, related question:
Is there a way to copy the invite link into an email blast - instead of only sending the invite from dropbox?
here is an example of what I am trying to do:
1. lets say I am a real estate sales person and I want to send prospective clients a link to view a house that is for sale.
2. The photos of the house are in my dropbox.
3. I prepare an email blast to 10 prospective clients and paste the dropbox link into the email blast.
4. All the recipients have dropbox accounts
4. When they open the email and click the dropbox link and view the dropbox photo files - I would like to see those who view it by their email address.
Is this doable?
- MeganDropbox StaffHi bt22, how are you today?
This wouldn't work on shared links.
It sounds like viewer info would do the trick for you, however in order for this to work you would need to actually invite people on the file or folder. However, you should be able to see more on the activity of the file.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate.
