@"SoCalSam" wrote:... No. Very different meaning. I am trying to say that when I use ~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd I cannot do anything else and you are saying that I just cannot execute another daemon. Very different meanings. When I issue that command I get the following in my command window: ... Ahh... I didn't suppose you…

@"cjscheller" wrote:... Here is an example public video file that I am trying to host on a website: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/2wosdax2v7ud8sg/AACmnpMe_qveJOvPuxMtj0L8a/DJI_0490.MP4 ... The issue of playing this video is not related in any way to the link. The codec in use (MPEG-H HVEC H.265) is proprietary 😕! Firefox is…

@"cjscheller" wrote:... This appears to be due to the fact that the Dropbox share links (both https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/sh/XXXX?raw=1 and https://www.dropbox.com/sh/XXXX?raw=1) are returning a MIME/content type of "application/json" rather than the expected "video/mp4". ... Hi @"cjscheller", Wow... Is there any…

@"Rushik Binary" wrote:... I have to get a token from API ... Hi @"Rushik Binary", In general API consumes access token (refresh tokens too - indirect), it doesn't give you any token. Different types of tokens (access/refresh) can be acquired through OAuth flow in one (access token only - short lived) or more steps…

Hi @"ravikiranreddy", Yes, you need refresh token that can be used to programmatically get access token without further user interaction. Take a look here how can be done. Hope this helps.

What I said: @"Здравко" wrote:... The daemon can run just once per user context. If you have one running already, you cannot run another ... ...and what you're saying: @"SoCalSam" wrote:... but I cannot run anything when the daemon is executing. Hm...🤔 Yes, 🙋 different words order, but the same meaning, I think. Don't you…

Hi again @"lalith-mcw", I just tried it out and it's working for me. Are you certainly passed the refresh token to and not something else? 🧐 Also to work correctly, the app key must match to the refresh token (for PKCE app secret is optional, but when given must be correct and matching too). You can check if your params…

@"lalith-mcw", the script you linked to doesn't generate refresh token! Only access token comes there out. As you know, it's short lived. Use any of the other 2 scripts in the same folder to get refresh token. When you have correct refresh token (not just access token passed as refresh one - so would become invalid)…

@"SoCalSam" wrote:... That command was not installed. I used the instructions in Install - Dropbox to install Dropbox. ... @"SoCalSam", On the page you linked to are different instructions (2 groups actually). If you have followed the first group, then you should have the command installed (it's internal part of the…

Hi @"SoCalSam", When you want to just share something between VM and host (whatever they are; including VM Linux & host Windows, but not only) sharing a local folder using the virtualization system (in use) capabilities is much simpler and safer way that use of any external sync system (including Dropbox) and engages less…

@"Thang2000" wrote:... Also, what is the proper way to handle this, right now I'm doing: try: dbx.files_copy_v2(from_path=entry.path_display, to_path=path_to_autopdf_folder) except WriteConflictError as e: but getting "catching classes that do not inherit from baseexception is not allowed python". ... Hi @"Thang2000", In…

@"DB-Des" wrote:... Those are typically the reasons why invalid_access_token error would be thrown for a refresh token. @"DB-Des", Is the API that returns the 'invalid_access-token' error in such cases? 🧐 Isn't better making error text to match what actually happens? Why when error code is 400 and match to 'invalid_grant',…

You don't need anything else to stop the process since your haven't unlinked another application yet (again, no sign out and no device 😁). Have a nice day!

Hi @"lalith-mcw", Haha.. 😀 You just found out a imperfection in Dropbox Python SDK. It doesn't make distinct between access token and refresh token. As seems your refresh token is invalid for some reason, but according to the message, you received, the access token became guilty (token that doesn't exist yet). 😁 Just…

Hi @"Nancy F.1", You can do what you want, don't worry. Yes unlinked application cannot keep Dropbox files in sync, but as soon as you link particular application back, the Dropbox folder will get in sync. Till then the status gonna be like net is missing. About termins clarification: Device cannot be linked to Dropbox,…

@"feliks PROLAND" wrote:... Is it possible to stop it? Hi @"feliks PROLAND", No exactly to stop, but there is a way. You can restore all just deleted, so nothing dramatic; just do it. Dropbox keeps the things in sync; it sync file content as well as file move, creation, deletion, etc. All this gets done immediately or when…

Hi @"muxxum", Take a look on another thread. It may helps to you too. 😉 Good luck.

@"Duycode" wrote:... My app has been granted permission required scope "sharing.read". Status 409 Conflict when calling sharing/get_shared_link_metadata. ... Hi @"Duycode", I created a download script sometime ago that uses, by the way, metadata too. Just checked it and seems to work still. Use it as a guide. 😉 Hope this…

@"millticket", Gooood note! 😉😀 Actually "include_deleted" here is meaningless. The meaning is when you list some folder (using /2/files/list_folder) to be possible ignore already deleted items. When you're going to trace particular change (a change that happens in your path), to be deleted particular file, it has not been…

@"foggy748" wrote:... So, if I understand transform this word "Définir" to "D\u00e9finir" works? Correct. It should work, at least. Usually this is done automatic by most json libraries, when properly initialized. Add: To be sure that everything is correct, dump the output of JSON.stringify. 😉 Take a look here for…

Hi @"foggy748", Unfortunately, Dropbox API doesn't support latest specifications for using unicode during json encoding. You have to use 7-bit json ASCII encoding (the previous specifications). All symbols that don't fit in 7 bits and all special symbols have to be tagged properly. Hope this helps.

Hi @"TitoritoTito", Did you intentionally set your Dropbox folder as read only or this is some kind of mistake? 🧐 Try wipe this flag out from the Dropbox folder and all its content (files/subfolders). Good luck.

@"Scott B.26", 😀 Probably you did upgrade from Plus to Pro (no opposite), anyway... Ignore my previous post, neither Plus nor Pro account manages team spaces, so it cannot be related to your issue. That would be the case with least Standard plan. Good luck with figuring the issue.

@"Scott B.26" wrote:... This has been a problem for EVERY version of iPad since 2020, and every iOS during that time span. Dropbox and Bluebeam behaved perfectly good 2015-2020. It was just maybe in the fall of 2020 that it stopped working properly. ... Hi @"Scott B.26", As seems, something has happened at "fall of 2020".…

@"Jagadeesh", Yes, it's known bug. Take a look here. Let's hope will be fixed soon.

@"Megan", 😁 Good rhetoric! Yes, as seems, you have already fixed it. 😉 Files can rename properly already in preview too, not only in folder view (as was before). By the way, that was checked in different browsers. Thanks! The same test follows (without side errors and properly working download feature):

@"nabeards", In general it's monitored, but during weekend this monitoring is very weak. So it's likely, any move related to things mentioned here, to be performed no earlier than Monday (or even latter). Of course, Business accounts are served better, so if you want you can speed this up, probably. 😉

Oh... As seems, there is a some new bug in Dropbox API. Let's hope will be fixed by Dropbox soon...

Hi @"nabeards", I have a script targeting download of file from link or all files in shared folder pointed by link. This script enumerates all files in links to folders, of course. Take a look there and see if works for you. Good luck.

Hi @"JohnPT", You have a mistake! In spite not always resulted, passing non-tagged parameter obviously leads to errors of different kind. This hidden bug in your code appears on the second link (there is a predispose, but it's not the reason itself). Probably, you can figure out what's going on and how that activates your…
