I’m trying to upload a directory to Dropbox along with all its contents
including any sub-directories and its contents using the Python API.
I can upload files OK and even create new Dropbox folders. I wonder if
anyone has a solution for this. Any help or code examples would be greatly
appreciated. Below the error message you can see the code.
The error message is as follows.
Traceback (most recent call last):

Python code.
