How to download a WeTransfer directly into Dropbox?

Hi, I received a wetranfer file and I want to download it directly onto dropbox and not onto my hard drive and the upload onto dropbox. Is there a way?

  • Hi KB-39, welcome to our Community! 

     

    I'm not entirely sure if you can sync a file directly from WeTransfer to Dropbox, without downloading it first on your hard drive, however from our end, I doubt it. 

     

    I think that you should reach out to WeTransfer about this, but based on the research I did on my end, it doesn't seem possible. Maybe there's a third-party app that will help you achieve that, but that would be outside the reach of our Support.

     

    I hope this clarifies!
