File name changed when uploading to a Dropbox Request

[Roblox1]

I was logged into my account and uploaded a file to a requested folder link. However, when I got the upload confirmation email, it added my name to into the file name. I needed to have it named in a specific way and didn’t think it would add my name to then end of the file name.
Does this happen automatically?

Hi @Learningtech, how are you today? 

Would you be able to send us a few screenshots of how you choose to upload the content, and how it got named after? 

Thanks!

Are you certain that the middle xxx has actually been removed from the file name that that it's not just truncated in the email? Can you show a screenshot of the email (remove any private information)?

---

How can it delete part of the name that I named? I saw it when it uploaded and it was correct

Once a file has been uploaded through a file request, you can't rename it. You have no access to the file once it has been uploaded.

Hi- is there a way to send a private message?

Through Dropbox to the owner of the file request? No. You'll need to email them yourself.

No I mean on this platform?

Not that I'm aware of.

It was named like this:
Jane - Jane Doe - HI.mp3

Confirmation was:
Jane - HI Jane Doe.mp3

So I don’t know if the last bit was added on? But the middle part is missing?

Hi @Learningtech, could you attach a screenshot showing the naming convention for that folder?

What is a "File Request" that adds extra wording to a filename?

Hey @JD444, I'm sorry but I don't quite understand your query; could you elaborate a tad?
