"Send a copy " to a Dropbox-file from an app to automate the process
Hi,
To share a file with another outside our organisation we do as follows:
1. Create the file on our dropbox, when having a local copy on HD we can make the file directly to the HD copy
2. Right click on the file and choose "Send a copy.." to send it with Dropbox link
3. We open "Settings" and set password and expiry date for the link and prepare the link
4. We choose "Send with e-mail"
5. Write the recipients E-mail address and content in the message
6. Press Send
What we want to do is to pass all this information directly from an app to avoid manual work to do the same procedure on each file, we are planning to send hundreds of files per day to our customers so it will be quite a lot of manual writing to do when all the information we need to give is already known by our app.
Would it be possible to implement such feature in Dropbox ?

Hey RD10, thanks for posting on our Community and happy Friday!
Could you please clarify if this would be a 3rd party app or an app that you yourselves have developed that's utilizing Dropbox APIs?
Are you familiar with the integrations that Zapier has developed with Dropbox perhaps?
More information on what exactly you'd like to see implemented would be highly appreciated.
