Download a File from Dropbox in Linux

To download a file from dropbox, the following steps have to be followed:

  1. In your dropbox folder, click the file you want to share, and then click share; and then click create link.
  2. Once the link has been created, you can copy the link by copy link. This will copy the link into your clipboard.
  3. You can paste it somewhere. It has a format similar to: https://www.dropbox.com/s/m5ay6j4to7ryr4p/resizer.bit?dl=0
  4. Adjust the link to https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/m5ay6j4to7ryr4p/resizer.bit. This can be done by replacing the www.dropbox.com to dl.dropboxusercontent.com, and removing the tail of ?dl=0.
  5. In Linux, just use a command similar to: 
    wget https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/m5ay6j4to7ryr4p/resizer.bit --no-check-certificate
