Import 3d object (obj file) that store online to Shapediver

[khuongnguyenxd]

Hello everyone,
I have found the way to import obj file which stores in dropbox to Shapediver. But when I tried with google driver or one box, it doesn’t work. I know that shape diver recommends use Dropbox or Amazones3bucket to stores files, but I wonder if is there any way to use google diver or file on the website? Who can help me? thank you very much and sorry for my English not good.

Storing and importing external files from Dropbox works fine but we don’t have experience with Google Drive, see below.

Services like Dropbox or Google Drive provide different types of links, sometimes directly serving the requested file and sometimes providing a link to a hosted page where you can download the file. With dropbox, for example, one can switch between those two links by using the query ?dl=0 (hosted page) or ?dl=1 (direct download). Using this second option has been tested with ShapeDiver and it works without problems.

It seems that by default, Google Drive does not let you access the file itself. We have found this resource explaining how to get a direct link to the file. However, we did not test this solution yet. Let us know if you make it work.
