28 TopicsSharing a Dropbox link while using BombBomb tracking...
Hello, I am with BombBomb customer support and this was brought to my attention by a mutual customer. When sending an email from Gmail while using the BombBomb extension, the link is blocked. I have to disable the BombBomb extension or BombBomb extension tracking. Scenario: 1. I am in dropbox and I click on share a folder. It generates a url to share and copies it to the clip board. 2. In the chrome browser, in my gmail, I create a message and "paste" the link into the email. The text of the link shows the correct url. 3. The receiving party opens the email and clicks on the link. The URL is blocked. It is a bixel link in particular that is being blocked. This only happens with a gmail/chrome account that has the BombBomb extension enabled. When the extension is disabled, the link is sent through fine. We have tried multiple other cloud-sharing platforms and sharing links and this does not happen in others so I think it may hopefully just be a simple security or whitelisting situation. Please let me know if I can help any further or connect you with anyone in our team for help in solving this problem. Thank you!72Views0likes5CommentsRestore Access Code in Dropbox Sign
Dropbox Sign previously allowed users to add an access code when sending documents directly through the website. This feature has recently been removed. I have been told by the support team that it is possible to include an access code by sending documents through HelloSign, but unfortunately this adds extra steps requiring users to reupload signed documents back to Dropbox. Restoring this feature would significantly improve workflow efficiency by ensuring that signed documents are automatically saved to Dropbox without additional steps.46Views0likes7CommentsI want to add my personal Dropbox as a place in Excel, but I'm asked to contact the admin.
I am trying to enable cosharing between me and a friend. To do that, I am trying to add my Dropbox as a place in Excel, but whenever I log into my Dropbox, which is my personal email, it tells me to contact an admin. But it is my personal email, so I am the admin? Does anyone know what to do? Thanks!29Views0likes1CommentMonday.com Automation to Create Drop Box Link through Sync Pulse

Hi guys, Luis here! I have a WP site and I want to know if it's possible to stream media (videos and images stored in my dropbox), to my WP site. I'm looking for a solution that has some securiy features (don't let the site users to download the media, just to watch it), etc. I was looking at the JETPACK plans, but I'm not sure if I can use it for the images, then, I thought that it'd be awesome If I could do it using my dropbox. Thanks for the help!673Views0likes1CommentSeeking Community Advice: Handling Increased User Traffic Impacting Dropbox Integration
Dear Dropbox Community, I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to seek advice and guidance regarding a challenge I am facing with my site integration with Dropbox. Currently, my website utilizes Dropbox to access data such as text files and videos. While this integration has worked seamlessly for some time, I have encountered difficulties as the number of users accessing my site has increased. Specifically, I am experiencing performance issues and occasional downtime due to the strain on accessing files from Dropbox when multiple users are concurrently accessing my website. I am reaching out to the Dropbox community to gather insights and recommendations on how to address this issue effectively. thanks429Views0likes1CommentPDF Upload to Dropbox is not allowing Pre-existing fields
We have uploaded a PDF to DropBox and the pre-existing fields we need filled out are static when we send the doc to the recipient. What are we doing wrong? We do not get the "Pre-Existing Fields" prompt that another user does.891Views0likes5CommentsFormula links in Excel
Hi! I'm trying to organize different files in Dropbox with automatic links from one Excel-file to another. When I enter a formula to create this automatic link at first it seems fine, but when I close the file that the link refers to the formula automatically changes to =C:\Users\Username\... Because the formula links to a place that only exists on my computer, my colleagues can't work with it. Is there a way to have the formula refer to a place inside of Dropbox instead of my computer? Thanks for the help!981Views0likes3Comments
