Unfortunately, that's very difficult to diagnose. Also keep in mind that it doesn't matter how long particular code works! So: @"programmer" wrote:... works fine for hours if using google drive. ... is unrelated, the important thing is how! If you keep doubt that it's Dropbox server related, try investigate outside your…

Hi again @"programmer", Sometimes the forum spam filter activates just so - nobody knows why. 🤷 Don't ask me. Anyways... Your issue is not related to Dropbox itself (neither Dropbox API nor Dropbox SDK). There are are lots of reasons why your link could slow down. To one or other extent it's always related to your…

Hi @"Greg-DB", Expanding support for different media types would be really fine, but regardless of the final decision for whether and/or when that to be done, documentation may be improved. 😉 At present definition of what's photo and what's video in content of type MediaMetadata is missing and predisposes confusions! (I…

Wow.. Yes, you are correct. As seems it works stable only for jpegs, but not png or gif.... Don't ask me why! 🤷

😀 I'm receiving roughly the same (or equivalent) when I skip turning on the media info. Did you skip that step? (Note in the request body above: "include_media_info":true) 👆 By default media info is off! Hope this clarifies matter.

I just tried for an arbitrary image and its as follows (a bit shortened for clarity): > POST /2/files/get_metadata> Host: https://api.dropboxapi.com> User-Agent: api-explorer-client> Authorization: Bearer ***********valid*access*token********> Content-Type: application/json> >…

Hi @"dnaz", To get image or video media info in metadata you need to call /2/files/get_metadata endpoint. The media info is not supported on other endpoints for number of years already. Hope this helps.

Hi @"UserMateUser", What's that 'token' variable and where it comes from? 🤔 Did you try dump it just before client construction? If not, check this at the beginning. Good luck.

Hi @"genieprimetime", Did you try to just append "&raw=1" to the link? If not try it. 😉 Hope this helps. Edit: My mistake! For this link you would need to append "?raw=1". (it's the only param here)... Or not...🤔 Are you sure the link match to the image? I don't think so... You have edited it! In all case just replace the…

@"williamb11", Don't mix preview (that what you screenshot shows) and open. Such type of files will never preview on any machine in any browser - Dropbox just doesn't support preview for all files. Hope this sheds some light.

@"williamb11" wrote:... The odd thing is that when I click to open a Lotus file in the same Dropbox folder on laptop C, it opens first time without my having to download it first. Can anyone explain this, please? ... Hi @"williamb11", It's simple - you don't need to download something that's already there. 😉 On others you…

In short, you cannot do it in that way. In more words: Dropbox Embedder works only in browser and that's why you cannot do it in the way you intent to (server side). You can do something similar, but without Dropbox Embedder. In fact you should re-implemed entire rendering process (on your own) using Dropbox API on…

@"Saif Lajmi" wrote:... i dont find any documentation contain the embeder ... @"Saif Lajmi" wrote:... // Shared link to Dropbox file link: "https://www.dropbox.com/sh/keptcjl08q3wsid/AACui966iXcXPbagCJ2py2L-a?dl=0", file: {... Hm..🤔 Where you get that link from? Probably there is no any documentation. 🤷 Rhetoric, of…

Hi @"Saif Lajmi", Dropbox Embedder is a prebuilt component, not just some name as you think as seems! Ensure usage of this component and don't "transform" it to inline frame. Dropbox links cannot be rendered in such a way. Hope this gives some direction.

Hi @"hhting", Yes, maybe an example might add more clarity, but the description is there and you may derive expected format. Just an example: { ".tag": "failed", "failed": { ".tag": "access_error", "access_error": { ".tag": "invalid_team_folder_id" } }}

@"andyyoung" wrote:... Is it possible to use Dropbox API to make this real? ... Hi @"andyyoung", I don't know how much programming experience you have, but as seems you are "flying" too much in all those clouds (if I could say so). To one or other extends everything is abstracted. Let see the files you save on your drive.…

@"user44" wrote:... Is there a way to get FileMetaData objects instead of MetaData ones directly via API call, using the Java SDK? ... Hi @"user44", The Metadata class is just a basic class that multiple other classes derive from. This class is the common things between FilesMetadata, FolderMetadata, and DeletedMetadata.…

@"dgtal box" wrote:... Any solution for a folder? No, that trick doesn't work for folder links, unfortunately. Even if that works, you would need to unzip the content (a zip file would come up, not something else). You could walk through the particular folder tree and download all files while recreating the tree locally…

Hi again @"dgtal box", Yes, as mentioned in another thread here on the forum where you participate too, there are some issues with CORS. You still can request the pointed file with some tricks, like following: As you can see it's possible. Just change the domain as shown and that's it. The missing header, as in your case,…

@"dgtal box" wrote:... All i got everytime are invalid files. Hm...🤔 What is that what you got? 🧐 Is it the shared link itself? Or... not exactly. 🙂 Where you copy it from in gedit? If you want, you can clarify what's going on by posting some code snippet that'll let the issue reproduction. So, likely will be more clear…

Hi @"dgtal box", It's never good idea using temporary derivative of shared link. The issue here is that... it's temporary - that's why expires. Use either the shared link itself or supported modification only instead. 😉 Hope this helps.

@"abdallah" wrote:... but how can I specify the `"path": "/Homework/math/Matrices.txt"` as in the `finish` docs? Am I getting something wrong here? Hi @"abdallah", Honestly, I cannot understand what are you asking for actually. 🤔 You ask for something that you have already explained in your question. Yes, the path is just…

Hi @"ssergio", Your links are links to folders. Unfortunately, Dropbox provides endpoint to add only file as a single call (/2/files/save_url), not folder. You may try walk through the folder tree in a script and add all files one by one. Other solution may be download all folders locally in your Dropbox folder using…

Hi @"mitja", Dropbox has GUI and if you system covers all requirements, than you should be able access preferences and change Dropbox folder place from there (just move the folder by hands is not supported on any system, including Linux). Typically you can see Dropbox icon near you system clock or, if there are too many…

@"tahjdbx", As seems you're totally out of topic. 🤷 The issue is not that some prompt that invites for authorization comes up! The complain is about fact that is needed a link without redirect and a way to avoid 'attachment' directive in the header - something that seems missing for no redirect links while available for…

Hi @"lubernar", First of all, how long take between access code getting and using it? 🧐 This code is for single use only and is short lived 10~15mins. It sounds like, you kept it too long before usage. Next thing, not signaled yet is usage of multiple basic authorizations at the same time (2 ways of all possible while 1 is…

@"mikechiu", I'm not some Dropbox system designer and that's why can only speculate on this. I agree that it's somehow confusing since not systematically documented (not yet at least). I just took a look on other posts from you and saw that you have created (or was trying to create) shared link on places where links are…

Hi @"c_porter", There is no way you have some mistake in such a situation. You description sounds like a bug in your NAS OEM software though. By default Dropbox API (the one most probably used in your software, as Rich mentioned) uses the account home folder (i.e. the particular team member own folder) only. When needed,…

To be honest, I'm not familiar with the mentioned package. I cannot imagine any package, targeting particular platform, to expect exclusion of the same platform though. 🤷 (including arm64, but not only) PS: Probably you are trying to do something like cross-compilation with pre-build package. Clarify to yourself what…

@"mikechiu" wrote:..., I got two different responses with/without Path-Root header. ... Hi @"mikechiu", It's normal, since by default (when nothing set) your Path-Root is your home folder. Let's recall your test folder is outside your home folder. So, without Path-Root set to your team space, the target folder is…
