Adding CSV Files from Dropbox

[JohnPlunkett]

Hi attempting to load a CSV File from a weblink - Dropbox - Emergency_Services.csv 

Through this method

We get this error

However uploading the same CSV file after downloading it via this method it works

(I know with Org accounts I can choose to connect to a cloud drive and it adds successfully as well) - but with Public accounts this option is not available

What have people done with getting their CSV data from DropBox into ArcGIS Online from a URL?

Thanks

the only thing I see different than in Bernie's csv example and your csv link is the ?dl=0 at the end of yours

Hi Dan

Thanks for the response dropping the ?dl=0 made no difference

The provided link does not appear to be a link to the actual CSV file, but instead to the web page representing the CSV file in Dropbox. A quick search of the web to find the direct download for Dropbox files yielded a few options, one of which was this:

Solved: Direct download link isn't working on mobile - Dropbox Community - 236563 

This page suggested using dl=1, as follows, which worked for me in the map viewer

Thanks,
