Re: Dropbox Transfer API

Dropbox Transfer API

Hi there,

as developer of Dropshare (https://dropshare.app), I'd love to see an API for Dropbox Transfer (https://dropbox.com/transfer). Any plans for that?

Hey @Greg-DB any word on this? Can you connect us directly to your engineering team? We're an image editing company and we could really use the Transfer feature. We currently use WeTransfer but we want to migrate away from them. If an engineer can reach out to us directly at <email redacted> that would be great.

@homedeck No, unfortunately I still don't have an update on this feature request. I'll follow up here if/when I do. I can't connect you directly with engineering, but if you have any questions or issues regarding the Dropbox API you can always open an API ticket here.

Hi @Greg-DB ,

 

Last word on this was a year ago. We would also love to see Transfer incorporated in the API. I'm guessing it would take no more than 5 days work for a good software engineer plus x days of bureaucratic hassle 🤔

 

How do we get it moved up the list?

@horton Thanks for the note! I don't have an update on this, but I've added your post to the request.

Greg,
Unfortunately it seems Transfer Links are becoming more common across our clients over shared links. Our platform is currently not able to ingest transfer links via the existing API. This is growing support issue for us. Please provide an update about this topic.

@spotloader2 I don't have any news on this feature request unfortunately. I'll follow up if/when I do.

 

For future reference, it is not necessary to post the same message in multiple threads.

It has been quite a while now. Any update on this? Can you at least say whether you’re even considering offering an API for this?
Need more support?
