    Hi there, MysticLenz, and thanks for reaching out to the Dropbox Community.

     

    Can you please clarify how this link was generated?

     

    And are you trying to save files from this link to your Dropbox account?

     

    If the link doesn't have an option to export files directly to other apps, I believe you'd need to save the files to your device first and then upload them to Dropbox.

     

    Please let me know if I misunderstood your question, though.

     

    Thanks!

      The thing is, I use WhatsApp Business for my photography — the images in my catalog (the link), I was trying to use Dropbox to figure out how I could download the images, using the WhatsApp link. And I don't have these images saved elsewhere, only on the catalog. Please, I need help to figure it out. Thank you.

        Hey MysticLenz, where are you trying to download the images to? Your device or do you want to save them to Dropbox?

         

        If the latter, saving them to your device first, would be the best option here. 

         

        Once they're saved to the device, you can upload them to your Dropbox.

         

        Doesn't the link allow for them to be downloaded?
