Ive recently had someone go through my one drive app and there was a photo shared so I'm wanting to know is it possible to somehow find out who the photo was shared with
If you shared a link then there is no way for you to find, who have accessed it or not. Means anyone with that link can access to the file without notifying you..

I've reached out to Dropbox on this and they advised that there isn't a way to do it through their platform, they suggested using other tools like GitHub, Zapier, and the like.
I have admin access to Dropbox and I have little to no experience coding, I've seen a few API's that could help me with what I'm trying to accomplish.
Is there an App or service I can use along with the Dropbox API to fetch all Share folders and their members? We are talking about 300+ folders so entering all the info manually won't be ideal since this task is time sensitive.
Thank you for any input or advise you guys can give me on this
I have a large number of photo albums on Google Plus. I am looking for an efficient way to download them. Had I put them on Google Drive, I could have used skicka, which has a few annoyances but overall works very well.
I'm looking for a similar command-line style interface that will allow me to download an album at a time in a more scriptable way than just going through and clicking all the links in Google Plus.
Does anyone know if a tool like this exists? If I could make my Google Plus photos appear in Google Drive this wouldn't be a problem, but unfortunately that doesn't appear to be possible.
You can change a setting in Goggle Drive and still use skicka (as you suggested initially) to access the photos then.
How Google Drive works with Google Photos covers two interesting aspects:
View your Google Drive photos & videos in Google Photos
...
Organize your photos & videos into Google Drive folders
The 3rd section provides clear hints about how to make Google Photos appear inside My Drive as a folder. (The 2nd section is also supposed to describe this, but it's not useful for the automation we are looking for.)
Namely:
Go to .
Turn on the setting that creates a Google Photos folder in your "My Drive" folder (if you already turned this setting on, you can skip
this step).
On the right, click the "gear" icon > Settings.
Next to
"Automatically put your Google Photos into a folder in My Drive,"
check the box and then Done.
After this there is indeed such a folder in My Drive, and it accessible through skicka as well:
$ skicka ls /'Google Photos'/
shows all the photos. (And they must be downloadable, of course.)
(BTW, that's your question where I learned about skicka from, thanks a lot! Now I'm using it to upload directories with folders into Google Drive and Google Photos. It's a pity that the problem of creating albums with a tool or via Google Drive remains unsolved.)
Use Google Takeout to download them all at once. Just pick Google Photos and uncheck anything else that's there. I don't know of any other way to batch download them all.
I run a multi-gigabyte audio content subscription service. Right now all of our clients get download links via email for all of the content.
I had an idea of employing the Dropbox API after a "successful charge" webhook and giving (read-only) access to a shared Dropbox folder with all of the content. That way, the customer would stay in sync with all updates, changes etc...
The way I picture it, the user checks out and is immediately asked if he would like to add our company's folder to his/her Dropbox.
Does this seem feasible/practical?
Looking at the API, I only see an option to provide a download link but not an actual shared folder. Am I correct in this observation?
That's correct, the Dropbox API doesn't currently offer any API calls for managing shared folders. It only has a way to get the read-only share links like you mentioned.
However, if you'd be interested in potentially participating in a shared folder API beta in the future, please sign up here.
#Greg's answer is correct, but I thought I'd mention a couple other options:
You could use the Saver to let users save the files directly into their Dropbox. This wouldn't help you to push new content to them—they'd still have to visit your site to save the new files—but it would let you cut down on your bandwidth costs, since Dropbox would cache the files for you.
You could use a combination of /copy_ref and /fileops/copy to copy the contents from a central Dropbox account into each user's Dropbox. This wouldn't use any of your bandwidth (once the file was in the central Dropbox account).
Please note, however, that free Dropbox accounts only start with 2GB of storage space. Since you mentioned "multi-gigabyte," you'll need to keep in mind whether your customers will actually have sufficient Dropbox space to store the files you want to share with them. (Even if you were able to use a shared folder, they would need to have enough space left to accept the shared folder invitation.)
I want to make a simple cocoa application to keep track of all folder visited by me.
I searched related document , but i am not able to find a single clue.
What is the first step to achieve it?
where should i start?
Is there any notification generated when user click on folder?
Is there any history maintained by operating system which i should read?.
You're going to want to use the FSEvents API.
Your app will not be sandbox capable.
Map a network drive to be used by a service
My question is relatively similar, and I realize there are others that are.. but I can't get it to work. I am creating the service thru visual studio 2010.
I attempted to map using WNetAddConnection2- and it successfully maps and is instantly lost (check if drive is mapped right after mapping it).
So I tried something else..
I saw some information about using WSH.. I added the reference and tried using wsh... didn't work.
I tried WNetUseConnection and that failed as well.
Attempted running the service under a different profile- that didn't work
Once I actually get access to the network drive, i need to copy files from that share into a local directory.
Maybe I'm missing the boat here but If someone could give me a thorough explaination of what is actually going on and a direction to head I can probably figure it out
Use the System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity class' Impersonate Method with the credentials of a user that has access to that drive and then try to grab the files.
