Move files from dropbox folder to sd card on android tablet to save space on hard drive
How to transfer files from my Dropbox to sd card to save space on my android tablet. Dropbox takes up a lot of space and I only need to store my Dropbox file on my sd card.

For simply exporting a file to your SD card, refer to the following help article:
Note that Dropbox will always use your internal storage. If you mark files as available offline or open files for viewing/editing, Dropbox will use internal storage for its cache. It's not possible to have it use the SD card instead of internal storage.
