Can I link a folder to another website gallery and export the folder structure from Dropbox?
I am helping my father in law get his collection of postcards into an online gallery. I am hoping to use the Wix website to create a database of the postcards and include the web URL that each can be...

Dropbox StaffThanks for posting on our Community today, robmarsh!
Although I’m not familiar with how Wix works, I’ll be more than happy to assist with any Dropbox-related questions.
Regarding point 1, I'm afraid that there's no direct way to export the file structure of your Dropbox account. It's great to hear that you may have found a way, though.
Moving on to point 2, what are you referring to with "a Dropbox folder"? The actual Dropbox folder on your desktop, or is it a specific folder where all of the postcards are currently saved?
If the former, while there's no way to share the root Dropbox folder or all of its content with one link, you can create individual view-only (shared) links to a folder or a file.
Finally, as for point 3, the name of an individual file should be visible in the link URL itself (this doesn't apply to entire folders though).
Let me know if you need further help.
With regards to the folder, it is a specific folder in the main parent Dropbox folder. If I create a share link to a folder, does it automatically create share links to each file contained in that folder? And, if so, how do I find out what those share links are (so I can start to determine the structure of the url)?
