Is there a section I can see all shared content?

Hello everyone !   There is a section of Dropbox where I can see all the files that I have shared with others users of Dropbox?
Share
Shared Folders

    There is no such listing. When viewing your Files page, any files shared in that manner will show icons for the people you've shared them with. In the screenshot below, that's the RR icon that you see, indicating that I've shared the file with myself (through another account).

     

    How a shared file is displayed

Hello !

 

Thank you for your answer

 

No, I will not link from which you can then download files

 

I mean you can see files: .PDF, .TIF, .JPG, .MP4   etc ....
I share (read-only, as individual files can be shared read-only) directly with other Dropbox users.

The only two places (and ways to share) are shared folders (www.dropbox.com/share) or shared links (www.dropbox.com/links). So everything you share from your account will be at one of those two places.

Shared FOLDERS require a person to have a Dropbox account (regardless if you share read only or not) and use up quota on their account.
Shared LINKS can be seen by anybody with or without an account.
