Hi @"JamesChristopher", Every account can share file/folder and receive/join to such a sharing. Once you shared the folder, your friend need to join it. Forward this to the friend. 😉 Hope this helps.

Hi @"rdyar", I suppose, that's your first try to use cloud storage API (including Dropbox). Did you read the documentation (or some of the examples at least)? You have variety of errors. Better take a look on the example here (very basic one and close to your idea). Hope this gives direction.

Opps...😯 It appears to get up something strange. @"Andrew_VM" You probably just flagged up a new bug in Dropbox. I tried opposite to get back to edit link (I set them long time ago to be view only), but it doesn't work for some reason (not only on mobile devices, but online view as well as on desktop application). 🤫 Let's…

Hi @"Andrew_VM", You can always do it in your account' sharing settings. Select "Can view" there instead of "Can edit". May be useful to select "Anyone with link" too if not selected already. Good luck.

@"Zaidwithdkg" wrote:... I need to know how can I upload my files and data with using Dropbox ... Hi @"Zaidwithdkg", Most simple way would be installing official Dropbox application and put your files in Dropbox folder. 😁 Joke. Using some of the family of upload endpoints (depending on your file size and their count) would…

@"Engg" wrote:... Because in all the Call we need Stream how to get the remaining Stream without uploading it again. Hm..🤔🤷 What kind of "remaining Stream" do you need at all and why? Honestly, I cannot understand you. Probably you don't understand how Dropbox upload works in general and that's what confuses you. In all…

@"Nancy" wrote:... Have you also tried our offline installer, and it didn’t help? ... @"Nancy", The link you use to refer to doesn't point to any installer. 😁 There can be seen only 2 zipped Dropbox' daemon versions (one 32bits and other 64bits) - just archives, nothing more Linux related. None of them is installer.…

To be honest I'm not sure what confuses you. You perform already upload finishing. Right? If you don't need to add some content there, the only needed is session identifier (that represents the uploaded file but not finished yet). If you don't finish the uploaded file successfully in first try, you can try next time (after…

@"Engg" wrote:One machine will have only one file which may be more than 1 GB. ... If per machine is a single file only to upload, you don't need loop. Why at all are you calling multiple parallel uploads in such a case? File size doesn't matter when upload and finishing are separate. Upload itself is not limited as I said…

Hm..🤔 I thought I was clear, but it seems not enough. @"Engg" wrote:... List<Task> tasks = new List<Task>(); foreach (var item in dbLocalFilesPath.Select((value, i) => new { i, value })) { string dbLocalPath = item.value; int index = item.i; Logger.Instance.LogInfo($"dbLocalPath: {dbLocalPath}"); tasks.Add(Task.Run(async…

Hi @"Engg", It's better to trace the state for figuring out why your code falls to such an exception. To do it better, avoid indefinite recursions (your code can fall very easy in relatively deep recursion - something that's not a good practice). Whenever possible use iterations instead of recursions (in the particular…

Hi @"VijayKumar E", Supported Dropbox API deals with information available to the user only (no for internal use by Dropbox). In many cases different files and/or folders may have not path (either yet or removed). Such cases can be summarized as all entries (again files and/or folders) that are not mounted. For example if…

Ok, sorry, the words just lipped out. I just don't know how to say that such sources are unreliable and how many time to repeat that so it would reach to you. Even more you should be more critical and shouldn't accept such things so... naively believing in them, even when clearly visible they are incorrect. As I said,…

Would you like to learn or to proof... not very clear what? 🤔 Might be current ChatGPT stupidity... @"Ghost Mjrm" wrote:i have noticed to this before that there is no app secret in the authorization URL but in the next step in exchange authorization code for token my app secret IT HAS ALREADY BEEN USED ... And.. what? Is…

@"Ghost Mjrm" wrote:... im here to ask and learn not to proof myself Ok, then it's easy 😉, just learn and not try to put non-trusted knowledge (something against TOS of this forum by the way). In this context let see: @"Ghost Mjrm" wrote:* Redirect to Dropbox for Authorization: * Your app constructs an authorization URL…

Hm..🤔 Ok, how the user would know whether the access to their own data is correctly providing to selected code (your application) and not some fake or malicious code? 🧐 On other side, how Dropbox API would ensure the token is provided to correct user and not to some "men in middle"? PS: OMG...🤦 Is your brain dysfunctional?…

@"Carpetes", What you're asking for actually? 🧐 You know what's wrong (I can confirm it is definitely - simply visible). 🤦 Just fix it.

Yes, user can do it and the file will get to the account matching this email (whoever is the owner). The same like when you use the official Dropbox application. Where a file put in Dropbox folder goes? 🧐 To your Dropbox account or to account own by some of the application' developers (i.e. Dropbox staff)? 🤔😄

😁 In this case (following your words) when someone uses your application should sign in in the same account when pass on the OAuth 2 operation where will look for the file uploaded (no in other account, like you did). 😉

I think you should NOT mess the application ownership with the account one! They are different things in general (can coincide of course), but you assume they are the same thing always - something wrong. I'm pretty sure your account is different (my questions above are rhetoric). 😉

In other words, you're not sure - make it sure! 😉

No, 'offline' access type just adds refresh token to response, nothing else! Something that you're ignoring in your code completely so far. So that cannot be a reason. Are you sure you have uploaded to the same account? 🙃

@"Ghost Mjrm" wrote:... so where is the problem i cannot find it Ah..🙋 If that's fine for you, you can use it in such a way, of course. In such a case you can remove the "offline" declaration for the access type since you're not using it in fact. So big part of entire discussion seems meaningless - you don't need long term…

Hm..🤔 Are you still trying some sort of AI? 🧐 @"Ghost Mjrm", come on... 😁 I believe you have your own; use it! 😉

You make me speculate... Likely you have copied it into your account using "copy to Dropbox".

Hi @"fbx_dsb", 🙂No, the file is NOT one shared with you (or not directly to your account at least). That what you're talking about is shared link to a file - it's something different! Since it's NOT part of your account, it misses in your list (actually you don't have any files shared to you - again, rather your account;…

@"frankpxl" wrote:... Would I have to do something special to have my DB files in Kubuntu? ... Hi @"frankpxl", No you don't need to do anything special. Just install appropriate deb package version suitable for your Ubuntu version (depending is your version 22.04 or earlier, or you have more recent version). That's it.…

@"wzeller" wrote:... If you would have time to explain this, I say thank you in advance. Hm..🤔 To be honest I'm not sure what you ask me for actually. I explained it already and don't know what to add. Ok, will repeat in other words. Official Dropbox application is limited to handle only one account locally (or 2 linked…

@"wzeller", Good questions. I skipped them by mistake. At the beginning let mention that it's a good idea if you have any Dropbox extras (like online only files and backups) turned on to turn them off (for files make them offline) in advance! In such a way you will avoid some possible troubles (like "ghost" files 👹) while…

Hi @"wzeller", As far as I can follow your thoughts you have just one account (Basic) and want to have Plus account. 🤔 Am I correct? In such a case, you don't need second account, but just upgrade you current one. 😉 So you wouldn't need to switch between 2 accounts at all. @"wzeller" wrote:... - Do I have to uninstall the…
