Streaming a shared link via Dropbox.

[dnln]

Hello,

The only reference I found to this question was dated back in 2019, which is a bit dated.

Question: Is it possible, if you've stored a .mp4 or .mov video on Dropbox, to stream that video either by linking to it via a URL or by using a Dropbox supplied embed code?

I would be using my Dropbox account as a video host for streaming to Word Press and/or to any of my html sites.

Thank You

Hi @dnln, let's jump right into this! 

You can use a shared link, which you would then embed to your site. 

However you need to keep in mind, that if this link brings a lot of traffic to your account, that could result in your sharing activity being banned for a while. 

You can see more about this here. 

If you have any questions, let me know!

Thank You very much.
