Embedded Folder -Grid View Using AnchorTags

Hello,
I've embedded a Dropbox folder in a Wordpress website using anchor tags. example:
<a href="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/url" class="dropbox-embed" data-height="600px" data-width="100%"></a>

It works fine but defaults to list view. I want to know how to display it as grid view automatically. Is this possible while using anchor tags?

    The "list" and "grid" options for "view" can be set when using the Embedder but only via JavaScript, not via anchor tags. I'll pass this along as a feature request but I can't promise if or when that might be implemented.
