When using dropbox, is there a command from terminal (mint or ubuntu preferably) that shows which files dropbox is syncing?
Up to now I just get the blue icon that Dropbox is doing something, but I would to see what it is exactly doing.

Is there any way to download a read-only recording from a Teams class (without recording the screen)?
I have a shared OneDrive of lecture recordings, some can be downloaded and some cannot.
Thanks for your help and stay safe.
You can download videos using ffmpeg.
Before following these instructions, Please install ffmpeg to your PC.
Go to the recording URL. Now you can view the video but you have no option to download the video.
open dev tools in the browser and go to the Network tab.
Then reload the webpage again.
In the network tab, search the following command using the search area.
videomanifest?provider
click on the highlighted area and you can see the right panel is viewing some contents.
Scroll up to the top of this panel.
Now you can find the URL under Request URL.
Copy that entire URL.
Use this below command in cmd.
ffmpeg -i "PASTE_YOUR_COPIED_REQUEST_URL_HERE" -codec copy NAME_OF_DOWNLOADFILE.mp4
You can see downloading the video.
From my own testings I found out that:
you can always download your own recordings (=they're located in your OneDrive)
you can download if you are the meeting organizer (=recording is located in someone else's OneDrive but you can download nonetheless)
Test setup: 2 different Team meetings (scheduled from Outlook) within same organization, 1 with me as organizer, 1 with the other person - and then we both started a recording each. The organizer could always download.
Good day
My problem i added the google drive api to get for files larger than 100mb no virus warning message from google drive
without google api its like this warning after clicking the link
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1DyXunnAetC9Xc8Ur0poTmLWo7Yo3DylZ
i want the download without that warning message i mean a direct download
so i created an api and created an direct download link over this site
https://www.wonderplugin.com/online-tools/google-drive-direct-link-generator/
what i get is this
https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/11KPre5Rr3i9jqUr2QdlS-98Kl4wuaW6Z?alt=media&key=AIzaSyBybF13v7u-zXnruCs6uJ9I1QxoDFe0miw
it works correctly the warning message is bypassed but the name of the file is also changed to the file id this would look for customers of my cloud really scary like a virus and not like a apk file or something
so what i want is that the file name will be displayed by downloading and not something crazy like 037eugd98zr9u2dßih9ud237
without api the warning apears but the download file has the file name and not the ß30ru329fie2hfe crazy name :D
can someone help me?
Due to some unique quality and regulatory requirements in our organisation, we need to be able to download a .ipa build from App Store Connect, in order to be able to compare it against a locally built binary. I appreciate this is an unusual requirement, but it is non-negotiable.
Clearly there is no way to do this via the App Store Connect web interface, so I've been looking at the App Store Connect API. However it is ambiguous from the documentation, whether it is possible to use this to download an .ipa build.
Does anyone know if this is possible, and how one might go about doing it if so please?
Apple does not provide any way of retrieving an upload app/IPA. It's neither possible through App Store Connect nor the App Store Connect API.
You can only check entitlements and additional build information in the App Store Connect interface. For that go to App Store Connect > My Apps > Activity > All Builds > Click on the build
(Fastlane does also not provide any way, because Apple does not expose the data. It uses the "web API", i.e. has access to more information than the "standard" App Store Connect API)
We can download IPA file with the help of Apple Configurator. Follow below steps to download IPA file.
Download Apple Configurator 2 app on your MAC.
Connect your iPhone with MAC and Apple ID should be same in apple Configurator and iPhone.
New window will display with app count badge in All Devices Tab.
Right click on your connected device in Apple Configurator and select Add and then Apps.
Process will complete and Popup will show with options, no need to click any option and go to this path
~/Library/Group Containers/K36BKF7T3D.group.com.apple.configurator/Library/Caches/Assets/TemporaryItems/MobileApps/
Save IPA file in your directory
-Now stop Apple Configurator
EDIT: I know this question is aimed at Downloading Appstore/Testflight builds, specifically, but wanted to provide this answer for others who find your question while looking for it from anywhere.
You can download iOS .ipa from Firebase distribution, as well as for Android .apks. But you do need to have the right permissions.
I just did it 5 minutes ago. See ☝️?
Go into App Distribution > find your app scheme/variant > expand build number > see if you have a Download button. If you don't, your company needs to bump your permissions up a bit higher.
Keep in mind that firebase apps can experience limitations when interacting with Apple SDK features, though, like SIWA. You'd need to use Testflight to test things like that if they don't work for you (we have decent devs and never could get it working on Firebase builds).
If the file gets deleted before you can copy it, you can use this command:
watch -n 0.1 find "~/Library/Group\ Containers/K36BKF7T3D.group.com.apple.configurator" -iname "*.ipa" -exec 'cp -r {} ~/Downloads \;'
When it's downloaded it will copy it to the Downloads folder. You're welcome.

I use dropbox for businesses, all of us have the mac app installed. Is there a way for me to copy the path of a folder/file and share it with other people on the same account, in such way that the link would open locally, and not on the web app?
No, Dropbox doesn't offer a way to link to local files across users like this, but we'll consider it a feature request.
I set up my old laptop as a media server and created a mac application in AppleScript that would remotely restart or shutdown the mac depending on which button was pressed, using this code:
tell application "Finder" of machine "eppc://USERNAME:PASSWORD#MYSERVER"
shut down
end tell
It's super simple, and was easy to write, but now I want to create an iPad app that can accompany the mac one. Ideally, I'd like to use AppleScript as, like I said, it's very simple, but I feel like that's not an option.
What are some other ways to do this? Where I would click a button, then it would connect to my mac and either shutdown or restart.
I feel like the best way would be to use SSH, and right now I'm looking at https://github.com/x2on/libssh2-for-iOS. Any other ideas?
Okay, just to brainstorm.... Dropbox is a great way to share content among machines, but it's also a pretty darn decent communication mechanism.
I use Dropbox to fire up (legal only!) bittorrent downloads on my home machine by setting up my torrent client to watch a dropbox folder for incoming .torrent files. I can then save .torrents into that directory on any machine I have Dropbox on, or in principle from a browser on my iOS devices that could share to Dropbox, and ta-da, instant remote kickoff. I can sit on another machine, save a .torrent to that directory, watch its file extension change to .torrent.imported, and know that when I get back to my main machine, that thing will be downloaded.
You could use folder actions or a cron job to watch a certain Dropbox folder for commands, and then put files into that folder that trigger those scripts to perform certain behaviors. Dropbox has a very nice iOS client library, making it totally possible to store stuff to Dropbox from a custom app.
