Export Bulk Dropbox Image Folder URLs

Oh, I followed this guide : https://freegistutorial.com/how-to-generate-bulk-dropbox-links-on-microsoft-excel/ and that's how I got the inspiration to write the Userscript. It does the same thing as this guide but MUCH quicker.

// ==UserScript==
// @name Extract All Dropbox Image URLs in Folder to Clipboard
// @namespace https://www.example.com/
// @version 3
// @description Extracts image URLs from a Dropbox page and copies them to the clipboard when a button is clicked.
// @author Tyler Hall Tech
// @match https://www.dropbox.com/*
// @grant GM_setClipboard
// @grant GM_log
// @run-at document-idle
// ==/UserScript==

(function() {
'use strict';

const SECONDS_TO_WAIT_FOR_SCROLL = 1; // adjust as needed
const DOWNLOAD_URL_REPLACEMENT = '?raw=1';

// function to get all image link elements
function getImageLinks() {
const imageLinks = document.querySelectorAll('a.dig-Link.sl-link--file[href*="dl=0"]');
return Array.from(imageLinks).map(link => link.getAttribute('href').replace(/\?dl=0$/, DOWNLOAD_URL_REPLACEMENT));
}

// function to scroll to the bottom of the page and wait for new images to load
async function waitForImagesToLoad() {
window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);
await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, SECONDS_TO_WAIT_FOR_SCROLL * 1000));
}

// create an array to hold the image URLs
let imageUrls = [];

// add a button to the page that will copy the image URLs to the clipboard when clicked
const copyButton = document.createElement('button');
copyButton.classList.add('dig-Button', 'dig-Button--primary', 'dig-Button--standard', 'copy-urls-button');
copyButton.textContent = 'Copy all URLs';
copyButton.style.position = 'fixed';
copyButton.style.bottom = '20px';
copyButton.style.right = '20px';
copyButton.style.zIndex = '9999';
document.body.appendChild(copyButton);

// add a click event listener to the button
copyButton.addEventListener('click', async function() {
let finished = false;
let numUrls = 0;
while (!finished) {
// scroll to the bottom of the page and wait for new images to load
await waitForImagesToLoad();

// get the newly loaded image URLs
const newImageUrls = getImageLinks().filter(url => !imageUrls.includes(url));
imageUrls.push(...newImageUrls);

// check if all images have been loaded
finished = newImageUrls.length === 0;

numUrls += newImageUrls.length;
}

// join the image URLs into a string separated by newlines
const imageUrlString = imageUrls.join('\n');

// copy the image URL string to the clipboard
GM_setClipboard(imageUrlString, 'text');

// disable the button and change the text to indicate that the URLs have been copied
copyButton.disabled = true;
copyButton.textContent = `${numUrls} URL(s) copied to clipboard`;

// enable the button again after 3 seconds
setTimeout(function() {
imageUrls = [];
copyButton.disabled = false;
copyButton.textContent = 'Copy all URLs';
}, 3000);
});
})();

Updated script:

I tried your script but it says 0 Url copied ? This script still work ?

It is not working. 

Tried your script by clicking on "Copy all URLs" but nothing happened. 

Please let us know is it still work as I need it desperately.

Update in Jan 2024. Couldn't get this to work. Chat GPT fixed it for me. The function needs updating. Change it to the below.

function getImageLinks() {
// Update the selector to match the Dropbox page structure
const imageLinks = document.querySelectorAll('a.dig-Link._sl-file-name_1iaob_86.dig-Link--primary[href*="dl=0"]');
return Array.from(imageLinks).map(link => link.getAttribute('href').replace(/\?dl=0$/, DOWNLOAD_URL_REPLACEMENT));
}

Make sure the folder is publically shared and you're logged out (incognito mode didn't work for me)

Hey, can you post the whole script, with your fix implemented?
I will update it for everyone; thanks 🙂

Here is where I added your fix. This is the official place where my code exists.
Added credit to you too, pixelsilo.

Hi sharmanhall, thanks for posting today!

Thanks for posting your method of copying your Dropbox image URLs for other users to use.

I'll leave this post open for other users to comment as well if need be.
