Dropbox now has shared URLs which are better than their public URLs because they don't reveal your user ID. Your user ID is static, but the shared file tokens are always unique.

Example public URL: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/49908/abc.txt

Example shared URL: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0d1g6x76rdz591p/abc.txt

I have Hazel monitoring a dropbox folder, and I'd like the action to email the shared URL for new files.

Is there a way with Hazel to determine a dropbox shared URL?

Looks like something you'll have to do in a script. Not sure how your scripting skills are but maybe someone else will chime in with one.
