We're making some changes to the Dropbox Community 👩💻 - Find out more here.
It would be extremely helpful if Dropbox URLs for shared files could be static, even when you overwrite the file. Having the URL change each time I save over an audio file makes Dropbox a poor option...

Community ManagerHi averydav,
Thanks for sharing this idea! Can you just confirm a few things with me?
For normal Dropbox shared links, overwriting or updating a file should not create a new shared link. Shared links are generally stable for the file unless the link is deleted/disabled and recreated.
Do you use the file’s actual shared link (via Share / Copy link), and not the browser URL?
If you're still seeing the link change on overwrite, let me know!
