How to directly link or embed Dropbox images – via: Canton Becker

Posted by jpluimers on 2016/10/31

When you share a screenshot with Dropbox, then it will copy a URL to the clipboard like this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/mzm7uf775rnjvnv/Screenshot%202015-01-29%2022.25.15.png?dl=0

That is not the actual screenshot. It is a web page around the screenshot that contains a lot of hoopla so you cannot easily copy the download link of the image.

Getting that download link is easy: make the below replacement:

  • ?dl=0
  • ?raw=1

Example: https://www.dropbox.com/s/mzm7uf775rnjvnv/Screenshot%202015-01-29%2022.25.15.png?raw=01

Or embedded:
