Hello,

Our company works with large video files from CCTV systems. My clients need an easy way to upload videos to me for analysis. I've been looking for a way to use Dropbox within vBulletin. I'm sure everyone is familiar with DropBox.com.

Here are some highlights:

  1. Create there own user Dropbox account using vBulletin credentials.
    Setup a share folder automatically and share with our admin email address.
  2. Upload videos in a totally private and secure area that only the user and an admin can see. Like a PM.
  3. Have a text editor with the upload GUI for description of the issue.
  4. Maybe an issue or support ticket numbering system.

Would anyone be interested in doing a project like this?????

Thanks

Mike

Hey, sorry for the delay in getting back to you :(

I've had a look at the API and it does not appear to be possible to create an account via the API. You can only authenticate with already existing Dropbox accounts. The authentication process would be similar to the way the Facebook authentication system works, as they both use OAuth2.

There also appears to be no API for sharing a file or a folder with another user.

It is, however, possible to upload a file - the API for that certainly exists :)
