    Hi there Dennisko1 - thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to our Community! 

     

    From the sounds of it, you might want to use file requests instead of shared links and consider using automations on the folder(s) themselves to achieve what you had in mind.

     

    As for transferring those to Google Drive, you'd need to download them from the website and upload them to Google Drive directly.

     

    I hope this helps and please let us know if you have any other questions.
