# The automation with the feed hosted on Dropbox doesn't work

A common issue in this case is the URL used in the automation.

By default, the Dropbox share URL redirects to a file preview page embedded in Dropbox. Stockeo requires a direct download link to access the file content.

To fix this, modify the shared Dropbox URL by changing the `dl` parameter at the end of the link from `0` to `1`.

For example:

```
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/7x9k2m1p8qzv0n3a5r8t2/stock.csv?rlkey=123ac456def789&dl=0
```

This URL opens the file in Dropbox preview mode.

To force a direct download, update it to:

```
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/7x9k2m1p8qzv0n3a5r8t2/stock.csv?rlkey=123ac456def789&dl=1
```

This version points directly to the file and allows Stockeo to properly fetch the feed content.
