Dropbox API2 Swift Examples

Raheel S.

Hello, Been a while since I've lookd/worked with the dropbox API. I was discouraged the last time I dedicate more than a year on perfecting an app for Datastore API.  (anyway)..

 

I've looked at the v2 API. I wanted to look at a worthy example that shows some capabilities of api2. 

 

Mostly: I'm concerned about efficiency of 

 

1. Downloading a chuck of newly created files.

2. Listening to a folderpath for file changes and calling the function (firstpoint) again.

 

I want to continously monitor a folderpath for changes and discover new changes (basically a sync API)

 

But i want to look at examples, all I see is a PhotoWatch. (😤)

 

Would appreciate someone pointing me to a github or atleast some pointers. At this time, there should be some many examples floating around. (I shouldn't have to write a simple sync logic)

In addition to the PhotoWatch sample you already mentioned, we also have some samples on the GitHub page here. Apologies there aren't more!

 

For reference though, for downloading files, you would use the download methods, and for listening for changes, you would use listFolderLongpoll. If you run in to any issues with those, let me know and we'll be happy to help.
