Saver does not upload image file to dropbox, only opens the image in new tab.

Trying to use Saver on Instagram files. If I use the API like this:

 

 

 

fetch("/api/dropboxupload", {
        method: "POST",
        headers: {
          "Content-Type": "application/json",
        },
        body: JSON.stringify({
          url: YOUR_FILE_URL,
          filename: YOUR_FILE_NAME,
          accessToken: accessToken.DropboxToken,
        }),
      })

 

 

 

I am successful. If I uninstall Dropbox from my node app and use Saver like this:

 

 

 

      <a
        href={YOUR_FILE_URL}
        data-filename={YOUR_FILE_NAME}
        className="dropbox-saver dropbox-dropin-btn dropbox-dropin-default"
      >
        Save to Dropbox2
      </a>

 

 

 

All that happens is that the image opens in a new tab in the browser.

 

Popups are allowed in both Safari and Chrome for dropbox.com.

@dwWithCat Здравко is correct; for a situation like that, you'll need to instead follow "Programmatically creating Saver buttons" or "Triggering the Saver from JavaScript".
