Hi @"boomtech", Try something like the idea presented here. 😉 Hope this helps.

Ok, the above shows that your localhost is working. So, again, do you get proper result from the mentioned function? 🤔 Take in mind that the example code (part that you haven't shown) doesn't return back to the browser anything if you haven't changed it somehow! 🙂

@"admsho" wrote:... I replacesd "XXXXX" with the key, i think I must use som other URL rather than my localhost? No,no... It's not your issue. The localhost is working. Are you handling this request in your 'HandleJSRedirect' and what are you returning there? 🧐

@"admsho", Seems you have changed more things than you have declared. 🙂 Where those address comes from? Actually does your code handles that address or you're skipping it? 😉

@"admsho" wrote:... private const string LoopbackHost = "http://127.0.0.1:52475/"; ... but I get the following we page result: ... Hi again @"admsho", The result you got shows that your LoopbackHost value isn't registered In the OAuth2 RedirectURIs list of your application. Something mandatory and noted in documentation…

@"sjyuenger", To be honest I'm not sure what you're asking me for. If you want to use API (or some suitable SDK) you should use API calls (or corresponding SDKs methods). In all other cases you can use whatever you want and works for you (since your example is related to local files, eventually synced). Clarify to yourself…

Hi @"sjyuenger", There is a special call to receive a single entry (either file or folder) metadata. Actually you don't need it since when you list available entries in Dropbox account result is a list of such metadata - you receive them even when you don't want. So, Yes, that can be done! 😉 Good luck.

@"admsho" wrote:... I only change the following but it keeps giving error "Acees denied": ... private const string LoopbackHost = "https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/"; please explain to me if the link I have used is correct, and is there any other info that I need to provide?? ... Hi @"admsho", Hmm... 🤔 Are you the domain…

Hi @"ogurchik222", Unfortunately, in Dropbox Python SDK examples is not any like you are looking for. I have posted some time ago some code (not exactly what you ask for) which do the authentication flow (on first run) and actual work in the same module. You can split this code and use the part responsible for…

@"bfmaier" wrote:... It's kinda mind-boggling that this number is so low per default and that the App doesn't tell you what's going on when you hit the limit and instead just "unwatches" all files and remain in "syncing" forever. ... Hi @"bfmaier", I agree that Dropbox application should tell user what's going on in more…

Hi @"Bhagwant Singh", Since you're planning to use your script on your account only (personal, non team account), make sure no any team scope is active in your application' permissions! Seems like there is least one such scope and that's why it's forced/expected a team account to be logged in. Hope this helps.

@"agomezv" wrote:... My question is: How can I get access the API whitout implement the OAuth2 flow? ... Hi @"agomezv", It's impossible yet. @"agomezv" wrote:... This because it will be impossible that the user gets a token from the AppConsole everytime that he use my VBA app. ... The user doesn't need to go in such a way.…

@"amilcarvalho" wrote:... Thanks for you answer. I post to the endpoint "/2/files/search_v2". With just {"query":"tag1"} on body. I want to retrieve content that contains the tag1. Is this possible? ... In such a way you will receive all entries metadata matching to the query. Matching are all entries (files and folders)…

Hi @"amilcarvalho", I checked it and everything works. Yes, it's inconvenient since not option to direct the search to tags only and many unrelated result entries may appear. In spite all tags get in the result in correct way. What's the exact call your performed? Did you restrict the search operation in a way that can…

@"kdss-ja" wrote:... Question will this AccessToken last for long time? Hi @"kdss-ja", If as long time, you mean 4 hours or so - Yes, otherwise - No. Doesn't matter how you gonna get your access token, it's always short lived. Read with some more care Greg's comments above! The Dropbox client object can manage the access…

@"Julian Li" wrote:... Thus, in this case, how could we obtain a token without authorisation via the browser? ... Hi @"Julian Li", It's still impossible if you want long term access. You can get access token without browser, but it would be short-lived token (most probably not what you want). @"Julian Li" wrote:... And for…

Hi @"jaredsaia", There are some imperfections in Dropbox application (not to say bugs). Next time when you're going to change some settings (including username), better unlink (sign out) the Dropbox application from your account and link it (sign in) back after settings change. Otherwise the application gets in confusion…

@"cbcollins" wrote:how do I replace the links to "?raw=1"? 😁 No to replace the links! Only the ending of the links! Take a look on any link you get from Create/Copy link. It looks like: https://www.dropbox.com/s/abcdl2345ef678h/filename.ext?dl=0 Here you can replace "?dl=0" to "?raw=1". 😉 Hope it's a bit more clear now.

@"cbcollins", Is raw link works for your? 🧐 Replace link's ending "?dl=0" to "?raw=1". Good luck.

@"DCardwell" wrote:... The cause had to do with the automation feature in Dropbox. ... 😁 Take care, not to turn on features you don't need and even disturb your work, anymore! 😉 Good luck.

In such a case, that seems to be some settings of your scanner application. Take a look there (on the application' documentation). If needed, ask the application support for more info.

@"DCardwell", Have you turned on Dropbox Camera uploads on your device? 🧐 That's where the second picture comes from in addition to the one upload by your third party app. 😉 Both ways act independent from each other and use one of them doesn't suspend the other automatically!

@"Fathzer" wrote:... I've just realized that there's no new refresh token emitted when access token is refreshed. I also read that Dropbox refresh tokens never expires! ... It feels like the refresh token is the new long-lived token 😊 Hi again @"Fathzer", Yes, that's the idea. 🙂 And it's not just feels, it is actually.…

@"Fathzer" wrote:... I found no "token refresh" event I could register (maybe there is no such thing). ... Hi @"Fathzer", Yes, Dropbox developers involved in SDKs design don't take care for such type of optimization, unfortunately there is no way to do what you mean. @"Fathzer" wrote:... The only solution I found is to…

Hi @"sentur", Dropbox application doesn't support yet exclusion of certain file types (might never happen). In spite you can exclude particular files/folders using the ignore feature. Hope this helps.

@"balman" wrote:... I don't be a dev but only an user 😊 @"balman", It's not forbidden a user to write some script for instance. 😉 You don't have to be a developer. Many integrations (including Dropbox) exist on many programs. If such exists in your password manager, that would be the best choice. There are external…

Hi @"balman", To perform variety of tasks (including possible sync) Dropbox support REST style web API and some SDKs in addition (like most other similar platform). You can take a look on documentation for such application describing something like protocol (API) and set of calls and their parameters (SDKs). You should…

@"Walter" wrote:... Out of curiosity, could you try another 3rd party app for unzipping/decompressing the zip files you mentioned? Hi @"Walter", How long will take to your developers to fix this old bug instead of advice to "try 3rd party app for unzipping/decompressing"? 🧐 Yes, it's likely some app can do the trick. It's…

Hi again @"Anggadika", Seems your system has some problems. @"Anggadika" wrote:... this result "An error occurred while sending the request." ... Such an error occurs when connection to the target server cannot be established. The reasons can be different, but typical case is DNS caching (and mismatch). To check in…

@"Anggadika" wrote: I have tried, but access is denied. ... Hi @"Anggadika", Did you read the example' comment? from the source:// This loopback host is for demo purpose. If this port is not // available on your machine you need to update this URL with an unused port. private const string LoopbackHost =…
