Hi anonymous, I'm not aware Dropbox UI provide such a feature. If you have some coding experience (even limited), you can use Dropbox API to do that. You can do that using different coding methods (including shell scripts). Read the URLs out from your JSON, in a loop, and pass them to entry point /2/files/save_url (or…

Hi @"tranvu", Seems there is some bug in Dropbox Embedder. Let's hope it will be fixed soon. In meantime you can use Jay's proposal for raw link embedding as a workaround (either permanent or temporary). I just check it out and it's working: Good luck. 😉

Hi again @"Esikhoob", While you're saying "in my Dropbox's account", be aware this can mean many different things. - i.e. in your web browser, in your local folder (if you have installed the official Dropbox application, that what I mean with "local" in my previous post), in the response of SDK call…

Hi @"Esikhoob", If you try to list your account content, is there such entry which path match to the path you're passing during link creation (take in mind root namespace has to be the same for business accounts)? 🧐 If no, that's why the path can't be found. 😉 If you're trying to pass local path, it won't work, both as…

@"lezan" wrote:... 2. I handle the request with an API function, make a call to the Dropbox endpoint and share the file (I am the owner of the file) with the new email. 3. Send an email to the user with the download link. ... Hi @"lezan", Hm...🤔 Can you clarify, why actually do you need both ways? In point 2 you're…

@"Esikhoob" wrote:... I think there is a third way. using your answer in https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/What-function-in-NET-SDK-is-for-oauth2-token/m-p/673861 , I can generate access token in .NET side (modified .NET`s SDK) and send them to Javascript side and use that to send file with help…

Hi @"Esikhoob", You can handle your problem in 2 ways generally. You can forward (re-upload) the files your users upload to your website to Dropbox using any of the available upload methods (depending on the files count/size) without storing them to your server at all. Such a way is more predictable since you're doing…

😁Hi again @"lymanhurd", Is that some sort of rhetoric? 🤔 @"lymanhurd" wrote:... I strongly suspect, from viewing analogous questions that the answer is "no", but I did not find an answer that I thought definitively answered exactly this question and also some of the relevant posts were three years old! Why to be NO? I have…

@"lymanhurd" wrote:... At this point I need to inform the original uploader and share the new file with them. Is there a way to do this short of creating a custom folder per uploader? Hi @"lymanhurd", You can upload/create a file/folder, wherever/whenever you want to, in the users account. Since every account is assigned…

Hi again @"swa22", You didn't mention exact steps you have used to receive your result in OP. That can be source of different confusion types. Take in mind that the result is context sensitive! Context - the current user as assigned by 'Dropbox-API-Select-User' header. Different users can have different access and in this…

@"swa22" wrote:... My question is regarding the lower used = 7234056173955 number. It looks entirely irrelevant. ... Hi @"swa22", That's the space the particular team member (most probably you) is using already. 😀 Doesn't it clear? @"swa22" wrote:... The allocation by team is allocated = 9895604649984 ... Correct.…

Hi @"Robert T.26", There are some missing features in Dropbox for Linux and there is no way this BUG to be compensated. For simplifying exclusion of everything else (as much as possible), but a desired folder, you can use following script: #!/bin/bash…

@"prsny" wrote:... I want the files to appear in Teams/Sharepoint with the same date as in the Dropbox Windows folder and Web App. How do I clear all the Version History and Activity? Hi @"prsny", Your issue description does lead to conclusion that the service you're using is somewhat buggy. Since the correct time shows up…

Hi @"dsoprea", Yes, webhooks can becomes more configurable and let developers configure what they (the hooks) have to provide. The conception instead is different - the idea is just to be a signal that something changes (one or more thing, in one or more accounts). In your code, you have to receive this "signal" and let…

Hi again @"webrobert", Just to note some corner cases and some ways your code may get more stable. Starting with listing and immediately continue that listing can lead to some inconsistencies at the beginning. If your initial listing "eat" the entire number of entries then the continuation wont return anything - the…

@"JohnPT", Yes refresh token doesn't expire. It's used for periodical retrieve/refresh access token anew. This happens with specific request to Dropbox server (usually performed by SDK internally). That's something that fails. Let's see why. Take a look here about details on how OAuth works (including the refresh - last…

Hi @"gdbcom", You can try split your data in smaller portions and try step by step to see where the issue is. Possible corner cases are special files, that can be used as they are, only in Dropbox (like Dropbox paper, gdocs, etc). In such a way if something goes wrong, you wont need to repeat everything, but only the part…

Your versions are not too different, but it's good idea to be the same so when you do some test to be sure the result will be repeatable to max extent. Also it's good to be the last version (possible bug fixes etc.), in spite not mandatory. Do it however you like. If something is going wrong still, as I said, check the…

@"JohnPT" wrote:... I created a new app and used a new access code. that worked fine on both the local test and cloud test machine. Not enough knowledge to know what that means? ... That means your upload API call works, but your refresh API call seems problematic for some reason. When you're using access token refresh…

@"AlvaroHuertas", have you selected some team scope for your application 🤔 or not yet? Without team scope you can't use team related features even when the API call, you're using, doesn't require such scopes! In such cases the call will be rooted to the home scope and you can't change this. Keep in mind that when you…

Hi @"webrobert", First of all, using list_folder alone, will never get the changes alone! Is this ever worked (on any account type)? I don't think so. You need to keep the last cursor cached and when some change comes in, you can "continue" with changes only. 😉 @"webrobert" wrote:... I am having an issue getting changes to…

@"JohnPT" wrote:... It fails on the final line the upload request. > print(dbx.files_upload(f.read(),filetouploadname, mode=dropbox.files.WriteMode("overwrite"))) I get a dbx object that looks fine in vscode. ... Just to add some clarification. Yes, for sure the code, you posted, is the only place where things can get…

@"JohnPT", some more info might be helpful. Your Python SDK single method call involves 2 API calls (on 2 different Dropbox servers)! It's not clear least which one fails. Some stacktrace would be fine. Does the same happen if you perform client object initialization with access token, instead of refresh token? Check that,…

Hi @"martinweiss", Dropbox provides Python SDK, but doesn't support any particular work environment explicitly; it's your responsibility. As about AWS Lambda, you need to add in some way any non builtin features (including Dropbox SDK and all possible its non builtin dependencies). What is missing actually can be seen in…

@"mansi2821" wrote:... i am uploading one file inside a3 now is there any way i can know using parent folder if there is any modification or not Yes, you can use the same way usable for monitoring single folder (your parent folder), but set the flag "recursive". In such a way all changes related to the pointed folder (the…

Ha ha.. 😁 you are trying to evaluate an existing link, not to create a new link. 😉 If you want to create such link take a look here. 😉 Hope this helps.

@"cristrod817", where is your shared link? 🙃 Did you forget what you're trying achieve - to get shared link metadata? You have to provide a shared link with that url field, not just some URL! What actually do you expect to see as metadata for the 'link' you provided? 😁 Hope this gives the next step.

Hi @"helloBichya", Ok, but how/where did you get your refresh token from? 🧐 You haven't shown that in your post. 🤔. ... or maybe you're trying use the code as a refresh token? 😁 They are different things. 😉 Take a look once again in documentation. Hope this helps.

Hi again @"Esikhoob", I see what you mean. Dropbox .NET SDK unfortunately is not designed in a way to be possible such things. The fields you're interested in are hidden/private. So no, you cannot use the provided SDK as is, but you can use the sources as a template and re-implement it (with some slight changes - expose…
