They will not need to have a Dropbox account to do so, nor will they be able to see the files in your Dropbox folder.
The page also presents them a prominent Choose Files button, which allows them to upload files to your Dropbox folder. Once the document is in the locker, it can be submitted the same way as any other file in the student locker. Choose New Document from the pull-down menu. When a recipient clicks on the link, they will be taken to a Dropbox page letting them know the name of the request and your name. Students will go to the Locker icon at the top of their portal.
One you create the request, Dropbox will create a folder in your Dropbox account, and generate a unique link that you can share with whomever you want. This feature allows you to create a named request for file submission, for example "Everyone's Family Photos". You just want to mail a link to your distribution list to invite them.ĭropbox has a new feature called Dropbox File Requests. Or perhaps you want to invite many people to submit photos or ideas to your group, but do not know who those people might be. But you don't want teams to see each other's work, nor do you want to require all of them to sign up for drop box accounts. However, sometimes you want to create an actual file drop box: a way for many people to submit or upload files to you, without having to explicitly share a folder with them.įor example, you might have a number of student teams around the country participating in a competition, and you want them to upload project portfolios. Dropbox is great for file synchronization and sharing folders and files with project teams, research groups, and so on.
MIT faculty, students, and staff have access to MIT's Dropbox for Business subscription, giving you Dropbox storage of 10TB for faculty, lecturers, and Spring 2020 teaching assistants and 500GB for all others during your tenure here.
