Would it be possible to put these files in e.g. a Dropbox Public folder and use the public URLs? We’re not sure if this is more amenable than having ChromoZoom authenticate directly with all of these cloud services. With the Public URL method, there’s no concern that we would write to or delete files in the cloud. We will look into the APIs currently available, though.
Edit: having taken a look at https://www.dropbox.com/developers/chooser, this might not be that difficult to do at all.

I’m trying to think about the best way to do this. Is there any way that it can already be done using the “Link to this view:” link, assuming all your files being loaded from URLs and not your computer? Our main issue with saving the tracks themselves is that we are concerned we will rapidly run out of space without per-user quotas, which will require a lot of support overhead.
An error occurred while saving the comment Yes... you can do it now by putting the files you want to display in the public area of your Dropbox account... however that is the problem of not implementing the authentication mechanism... if you want to keep those files private to you and the people you are collaborating with, this is not a feasible solution. Thanks for looking at this thou.

Cool... I have not played around with the Dropbox api. but I had heard from several people that is it a very simple api to implement. I hope you can integrate it into your software. Thanks
