Hi, We run an internal tool for our company’s marketing team. Our creative team uploads assets (JPG/PNG/MP4/MOV, roughly 5–100 MB each) into a team folder in our Dropbox Business team. We operate within a single team and have no external tenants. Our service currently downloads each file via /2/files/download and then…
Hello, I have two questions about the response from the /2/files/upload endpoint when an expired access token is used. First, the top-level error field has the tag other, rather than expired_access_token. The expired_access_token value appears only as JSON-encoded text inside user_message.text, similar to the following:…
I have developed a javascript program (html file) which accesses my dropbox app files. It works fine with a short term access code when I am logged into my dropbox account. I need to generate on demand short term access codes when other users access the html file. Below is a function that I am using to try to generate on…

I have included the sample code and the stack trace below. code : fileResponse = await dbx.AsAdmin(userId).WithPathRoot(new PathRoot.NamespaceId(user.Id))…

Why does dropbox saver not save files larger than 5 MB when creating a link via reader.readAsDataURL(blob) $(".LinguoKey_1w_DropboxExportProgressButton").click(async function () { const localStorageData =…
Hello Forum Members, I have a project where I receive public URLs of files, and I need to save these files to a specific folder structure in Dropbox. The folder structure in Dropbox should be organized as follows: Parent > Year (dynamic) > Month (dynamic) > Number tokens (dynamic). I'm wondering if it's possible to achieve…
About a week ago, POST content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/download started returning 401 when I pass the access token via the authorization URL query parameter (the CORS workaround from the docs). The same token works if I pass it in the Authorization header instead. The URL-parameter method still works on files/upload and…
I'm implementing a server-to-server batch integration using the Dropbox API v2 with OAuth 2.0. I'm using token_access_type=offline to obtain a refresh token, and calling grant_type=refresh_token before each batch run to get a fresh access token. I have two questions that I couldn't find clearly documented: 1. Refresh token…
Hi Dropbox Support, I'm on a 3 TB plan and I'm backing up a large music‑production library (~1.2 TB, ~130,000 files) to my Dropbox using rclone. After several backup runs today, my account's metadata/listing API appears heavily rate‑limited: a request to list even my 8 top‑level folders returns nothing after 20+ seconds…
