Common problems

Unable to upload or update a file

There are several situations when uploading or updating a file fails:

  • The uploaded file is too big and exceeds the maximum file size allowed for your Dropbox plan or you have used all of your Dropbox account’s storage quota. You will either need to delete existing files from your Dropbox account or upgrade your plan.

  • The previously selected folder, to which the file is being uploaded to, no longer exists. The scenario gets stopped and you will need to select the target folder again.

The URL returned by the Dropbox > Create a shared link does not link directly to an image, but to a Dropbox page – see https://www.dropbox.com/help/desktop-web/force-download for further details. To force the image to download, replace the trailing ?dl=0 with ?dl=1. To force the image to render (e.g. in a Web browser or in Facebook Messenger), append &raw=1 to the URL.

If you need to get the direct/raw link of your image which you can use for your website or for other Boost.space Integrator modules you need to modify the initial shared URL in the following way:

Let’s say your initial URL is:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ia8qtvs20f3a5ux/Screen%20Shot%202018-10-15%20at%204.21.11%20PM.png?dl=0

1. replace www with dl

2. remove ?dl=0

Your final URL should be:

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/ia8qtvs20f3a5ux/Screen%20Shot%202018-10-15%20at%204.21.11%20PM.png

To do it automatically, use thereplace() function twice:

to replace www with dl

and

to remove ?dl=0

To do it in one step, combine these functions:

You can use this code. Just copy it and paste it into the field and replace variable with the URL.

{{replace(replace(1.url; “?dl=0”; “”); “www”; “dl”)}}
