Hi Curtis,
thanks for your comments. In addition I found out that wget works
irrespective of the suffix. So setting the user agent might also help. I
opened an issue and wait for some comments:

Matthias,
The default link generated by dropbox ends in http….?dl=0, which brings
up a webpage with a download option.
To get a direct download, change the suffix to ?dl=1
Perhaps you could even hack galaxy’s upload script to recognize these
URLs and patch them on the fly - that would be a public service to us all.
Example:
View in a web page (default link generated by system right-click or
other dropbox bits):
_https://www.dropbox.com/s/lqsz785od3rxzhv/hello.txt?dl=0_
Download raw file:
<https://www.dropbox.com/s/lqsz785od3rxzhv/hello.txt?dl=1>https://www.dropbox.com/s/lqsz785od3rxzhv/hello.txt?dl=
<https://www.dropbox.com/s/ozr67t1yt378665/NetFlix French for
Kids.docx?dl=1>1
I pasted this URL into usegalaxy.org <http://usegalaxy.org>, set data
type to tabular, and it worked fine:

Regards,
Curtis

Dear list and a happy new year,
does anyone has experience with upload from dropbox to galaxy (by
pasting the shared link)? I always get an empty dataset with the
additional info "The uploaded file contains inappropriate HTML content".
I guess the dropbox download link is not actually a real download link
but a link to a website that contains some javascript button that
starts the download...
Best,
Matthias
