Dropbox File shared links bulk export
I have a folder which contains over 400 images, is there any tool to copy all these images' Dropbox links in Excel one time instead of one by one?
I suggest you enable your PUBLIC folder, then load the files into a subfolder say \dropbox\public\images\example.jpg
Once done you can get your NEVER CHANGING public folder link for \dropbox\public ( looks something like https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12345678 )
And simply append the subfolder and filenames to it https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12345678/images/example.jpg
.
Only thing to be careful of is if the subfolder or the filenames require web path conversions (spaces and od characters in the names etc)
I don't want to mess around with the API so I just scrape the links using R
1. Put your files in a folder.
2. Get the share link for the folder.
3. Copy link.
4. Log out of dropbox.
5. Go to link.
6. Scroll alllll the way to the bottom.
7. Save page as.
8. Then you can scrape.
Example script.
library(rvest)
urls <- read_html("path/to/saved/page") %>% html_nodes("a") %>% html_attr("href")
cat(urls[grepl("https://www.dropbox.com/sh",urls, fixed = TRUE)], sep = "\n")
