Hi all,
I'm creating an "anonymous" upload functionality (where the user-facing page does not have access to my dropbox tokens) and use the /get_temporary_upload_link method for this.
This generally works great, except that when the uploaded file exceeds exactly 314572800 bytes (300MB) the server throws an 409 Conflict error.
< HTTP/1.1 409 Conflict

This limitation is 100% repeatable and was mentioned before some years ago, see
https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/Large-uploads-via-get-temporary-upload-link-are-terminated-with/td-p/333377
The official documentation does not mention this limitation. I have a paid account and can have 100GB uploads per plan. How can I upload larger files? Presumably this works via the file requests mechanism, does this use some unofficial api or mechanism?
