How can I pull the original URL of an attachment from a Cloud service like DropBox

[Mike_Shaw1]

If I add an attachment of an Image via DropBox, is there any way to see, use a formula, or API, to pull the actual DropBox URL instead of the Airtable URL which of course expires?

Unfortunately, the original URL is not available.

Yes, it is very easy to have Dropbox and Airtable communicate with each other by using Make's Dropbox integrations & Make's Airtable integrations.

There is a small learning curve with Make, which is why I created this basic navigation video to help. In that thread, I also provide the links to a few other Make training resources there as well.

p.s. If anybody reading this post needs help linking Dropbox to Airtable, and you have a budget to hire an expert Airtable consultant to help, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant — ScottWorld

Thanks, I just needed an image hosting solution and I figured out how to simply change the last code in the dropbox link and it works for AT: You need to change the ?dl=0 at the end of the link to ?raw=1.
