@"Matthew S.50", Did you try move that folder using Dropbox web? If not, give it a try; it may succeed. 😉 Good luck.

@"Wookiee", The question of mine was rhetoric! I hoped it'll direct you. Ok... can you see the difference of your 2 posts and figure out alone what's different and wrong or...? PS: Everywhere some path can be used, the equivalent id can be used too. Even more a hybrid form may be used too: id of a folder followed by a…

Hi @"Wookiee", Are you sure, you have executed exactly that curl command you posted and not something else? 🤔 Why do I ask? The error message states that you have passed "Dropbox-Api-Arg" header, but it's missing on your post! 😉😀 Hope this helps.

Hi @"MooMoo_polar", The error message is clear enough, I think. Just forget to list the entire link (all its directories levels recursively) at once. That's it. First list the pointed folder itself (in non recursive way) and after that "by hands" all nested folder (again, in non recursive way) and so forth. Hope this…

Yes, as I suspected, you have correct FS but on incorrect place (see my previous post). I don't know how to say it clearer. Probably you got in confusion because Dropbox support selecting a place for where to sync Dropbox folder on Mac and on Windows, but not on Linux. On Linux Dropbox application cannot understand that…

@"dolphinuser426", As I suspected, your partition where Dropbox is supposed to exists is neither xfs nor ext4 (nor other expected). As can be seen there is ext3. 🤷 That's it. Unfortunately Dropbox is very pretentious. If I have to bet, you have correct FS, but mounted on incorrect place. Check this and fix your system -…

Hi @"dolphinuser426", To be sure what Dropbox application sees, check your configuration with following command in terminal: stat -f ~ What is reported as FS? 🧐 By the way NTFS is not supported by Dropbox on Linux and it should be something Dropbox never asks for. Where do you see such demands? That would be something…

@"Courtneyluv1013 " wrote: So once I upload the pics to my Dropbox I can delete the pics off my phone? Yes,.. and so you're going to free up some space for more pics... 😉

Hi @"Courtneyluv1013 ", On mobile devices (including Android phones), files (including photos) don't keep in sync. Once something is successfully upload, you can delete it without affecting already uploaded file. Opposite is true also - you can delete a photo in your Dropbox account (if needed) without affecting the photo…

Hi @"foxtango", Your issue description is not complete, but in general there are 2 reasons for Dropbox application inability to open web browser. If you have headless install and not default web browser exists configured (or incompatible terminal type only available), the application need to authenticate your account and…

Hi @"dragonoob69", The data themself are not deleted. You should keep accessing your account and make sure it's not left unaccessed for longer than an year! Non active accounts get deleted (and their content in the same context), so keep this in mind. Since downgrade, you're going to get over quota. When you are in…

@"sz3324" wrote:... Is there a way to get a log from your server that shows the format of the received HTTP request? ... Hi @"sz3324", Dropbox (and most other similar services) doesn't provide such logs usually, so server side logs gonna be unavailable to you, as Greg said. In addition, on embedded systems, client side…

Hi @"Patricklimkc", At the upload end you should receive either error or file metadata (on success). The metadata contains full path together with everything else. That's where you can find where every just uploaded file resides. 😉 Hope this helps. PS: Keep in mind that when your application is "App Folder" type, all paths…

Hi @"wimdeceuk", Yes, cache files may stay much longer unfortunately - one more imperfection (not to say something else). An easy workaround might be a cron job that wipe out the cache let say once a day (or some other period, convenient for you). 😉 Good luck.

In such a case you can only ask your supplier what can be done with the piece of code you're using. Otherwise you may try to use the Dropbox chooser directly, so you'll have full control. That's it. Good luck.

@"Mm4991" wrote:... I've been unable to find a Settings section for Dropbox Chooser ... Ah...🤔 As seems, we are talking for different things. Dropbox Chooser doesn't have any settings! If you want, you can add such setting in your app interface, but it's your responsibility. You can denote if and what type of file to be…

Hi @"Mm4991", Hm... 🤔 Did you set some file type/extension limitation and forget some of them by any chance? 🧐😉 Good luck.

Hi @"Dev Roy", You can do it automated using refresh token - it doesn't expire. Even more, if you use some of the supported SDKs, the only needed is proper initialization of client object - the SDK perform refresh internally. Do you have some issue with that?

Hi @"Anil kumar2", Your issue description is too... weak. Can you describe how exactly you perform those link generation and what error do you get when something fails. Some code snippet, that lets the issue reproduction, and exact error result, that shows the error in details, may be useful too.

Hi @"noob1", Using Delete is never a good idea! Most probably instead of deleting your shared folder you have deleted some subfolder into the shared folder. That's why that subfolder disappear for all. Another, more stable way, is to follow here. Find out there the shared folder you want to leave. Select the ellipsis on…

@"GTFreymann" wrote:..., and then run the command on that Directory one by one as they appeared. ... One more thing: You don't need to run the command for every one folder. You may list more folders at the same time if you want. For instance you may execute something like: ~/dropbox.py exclude add ~/Dropbox/Apps…

@"GTATech", That was (and is) always available for Linux too. There was only one exception several years ago - by mistake Selective sync was removed for Linux, but in that case the mistake was corrected fast after signaling (on the next release). I'm not aware of any other such case. The current one (192.4.4605) works with…

Once again: Your command will work only when your current working directory is the Dropbox folder! In such a way the folder name is path too. Otherwise no. To work in all cases you may try something like: ~/dropbox.py exclude add ~/Dropbox/Apps Good luck.

If your current working directory is Dropbox, Yes. Keep in mind that the folders are paths, not just some names! PS: You can easy check whether you can expect result from the posted command using something like: ls -ld Apps If the last command succeeds, then the your will succeed too.

Hi again @"GTFreymann", Yes, I understand and fully agree with you. A prize "most stupid sub-commands names" should comes to the Dropbox designer has proposed that names. All your steps you have till now are correct and matching to your intention! The only incorrect thing is the interpretation of the sub-commands names.…

@"GTFreymann" wrote:..., none of the commands I've tried have told debian dropbox to not sync anything else to the debian dropbox. Hi @"GTFreymann", Hm..🤔 You want to stop syncing particular folders down to your local folder (i.e. to add them to a list of excluded folders). Let's see... @"GTFreymann" wrote:... I tried some…

Hi @"Allan Layton", There are sometimes different application that self update (something I think is a bad practice), but only Dropbox application doesn't ask if and when to update; it just self-updates at some point unfortunately. There is no supported way to get back previous version. If you uninstall and install older…

Hi @"dev_ninja", At the beginning it's good idea to check the actual space immediately after your code get that error. Logging this would show you how much is the exact space. 😉 Also, checking the actual user account might be helpful. Good luck.

@"mp_w" wrote:... Neither of these folders (Apps or Apps/Name_of_App_Folder) was created. ... Hi @"mp_w", You haven't clarified completely yet the exact steps. If I understood correctly: In your account you created Dropbox API application of type Application folder. And nothing of application specific folders appears in…

Hi @"Ross82", Such an error appear when you have something wrong in your parameters. If you haven't reformatted your headers to post them here, then you have wrong HTTP header (every header in the header block should appear in a single line - your arguments are spread on multiple lines - bad syntax). If not exactly this,…
