You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

One-Time link share
Is there a way to only let a person download a file (pdf) once only and not be able to download it again?
This is a very user-intensive solution.
Like Box.net, where we can specify how many times a file is downloaded, when it can expire, and even analytics of who/when the user downloaded the file, I think we’re looking for an automated solution.
I assume DropBox transfer does not have these features. Will there be, or should I look to competitors for the future?
Thanks!

Dropbox StaffHi TylerTheHanson, have you checked this article to see what features Dropbox Transfer offers and if they may be useful for your requirements?
- Unfortunately, no. The one-time use links are what would be an absolute deal maker, moreso than expiration links alone, and analytics would seal the deal.
Any plans for those features for better file sharing?- Mark

I suggest that you create a thread requesting this is added, however.
