  1. Hi guys,

     

    I saw that there are already 2 different Doprobx workflows. Unfortunately, I don't think they're really convenient:

    • "Dropbox Short Links" (here) is able to get the link of any file located in the Dropbox folder, but doesn't work with a file that's not in the Dropbox folder. You have to copy/move the file manually then run the workflow.
    • "To Dropbox 3.0" (here) is able to copy/move any file to Dropbox and get a public link, but works only with the Dropbox "Public" folder (which is a bit deprecated).

    I think that the Ultimate Dropbox sharing workflow would allow:

    1. To copy a random file to a specific Dropbox folder (e.g. "Shared Files")
    2. To generate a direct/share link for that file

    I am not a developer so anything related to Ruby is really hard to understand and I am not able to develop/write such a workflow I need... Does anybody out there have some time to do it? I know I ask a favor here, but I'm sure you'll do 20 times faster than me. :-)

     

    Thanks!

  2. It would be useful to be able to select any file from the Finder, that would be copied to a specific Dropbox folder with the shared link directly copied in the clipboard, all at once. The target folder would be any folder from your Dropbox (e.g. "Shared Files") but not the old "Public" folder, as it is a bit outdated.

     

    To me, this workflow in its current state has no real advantage compared to the built-in Dropbox feature (see capture). Okay, the main difference is that it uses a keyboard shortcut instead of a right-click. But you still have to move the file manually...

     

    What do you think? :-)
