    <description>&lt;P&gt;Exactly how this works will depend on what library/SDK you're using, if any.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;For example, if you're using the official PHP Core SDK, you would use the &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-php/api-docs/v1.1.x/class-Dropbox.Client.html#_getFile" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;getFile&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;method to access the file content. That method writes the data out to a resource that you provide, and what you do with that is up to you. E.g., you could save it to a local file, or directly use or display the data elsewhere.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Or, if you're using one of the HTTP endpoints directly, e.g., the &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-download" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;/files/download&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;endpoint for API v2, the data is returned directly in the response body, at which point you can likewise do with it whatever you'd like.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>How to display text file content saved on account?</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey I'm building an text editor web-app using php. So basically I want to display the content of a text file on a text editor that is already saved on the application's filespace.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;My question is do I have to download the file to a local folder and read its content from there or is there another way to directly read files saved on DropBox?&lt;/P&gt;</description>
