    <title>topic Re: Use Dropbox as storage for site in Dropbox API Support &amp; Feedback</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;From a technical perspective, this is possible. The API was designed with the intention that each user would link their own Dropbox account, in order to interact with their own files. However, it is technically possible to connect to just one account. The SDKs don't offer explicit support for it and we don't recommend doing so, for various technical and security reasons.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;However if you did want to go this route, instead of kicking off the authorization flow, you would manually use an existing access token for your account and app. (Just be careful not to revoke it, e.g. via &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/account/security" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.dropbox.com/account/security&lt;/A&gt; .)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;From a policy perspective,&amp;nbsp;we can't provide any absolute guarantee of your app's compliance based on this hypothetical description, so you should be sure to review all the guidelines and terms before developing an app:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

      <title>Use Dropbox as storage for site</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi. I want to use dropbox as off-site file storage. But I have doubts that dropbox doesn't mind of usage which I am considering. How I see it:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have page on site where signed in users can communicate with site's admin. I want to give the users an ability to upload files in&amp;nbsp;dropbox without need for this users to have an dropbox account. Users will upload files firstly on site, then site will upload files to dropbox on single dropbox account, which I am considering to buy.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Also, admin will have ability (on site) to watch list of files uploaded by users and dowload them, if he needs it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;So I want to use dropbox only for upload/download on a single account. is it appropriate usage? Would&amp;nbsp;dropbox permit it?&lt;/P&gt;</description>
