@"apullin" wrote:... And/or does Dropbox API allow for a number of sequential HTTP transactions all across a single keep-alive socket? Hi @"apullin", Do you mean something like pointed out here? If so, Yes, it is possible. Unfortunately, it's NOT a main target to Dropbox' SDK development (in spite you can provide your own…

@"TheWhistler1967" wrote:Ok so it seems this is a DropboxTeams thing, so maybe this is closer: ... dbx_t_as_user = dbx_t.as_user("dbid:<string>") ... ... Hi @"TheWhistler1967", As far as I can see, you are trying use your account id (starts "dbid") as a team member id (starts "dbmid"). 🤫 Select the correct identifier. 😉…

@"Paul R.17" wrote: If the scope permissions are later changed in the app, does a new access token apply those changes? ... Hi @"Paul R.17", If you mean, "new access token" got at initial authorization - Yes, otherwise - No. The token' rights/scopes are not retroactive; they keep the state as is/was on authorization.…

Hi @"Zachjaryw", It's not possible to get refresh token in the same way as was for long lived access token - from your application's profile (not yet at least), if that's what you are asking for. You have to perform authentication and save the refresh token at the end. Can be used different ways; one such simplified could…

Hi @"Remimolette", Yes, I too have noticed it. Seems, it was some kind of glitch (seems in continuation), affecting browsers state (makes it inconsistent). Usually getting to and back from http://dropbox.com/h resets the state and everything gets back to work. Try it. It works for me. Let's hope it will be fixed soon.

@"puscasadi" wrote: ... Is there a way to make them visible in dropbox desktop for everyone? For example someone accesses his dropbox folder and these files to appear ... Yes of course, that's what shared file/folder is for. 😉 Just one clarification, you can't share the entire Dropbox folder (only subfolders - which is…

Hi @"puscasadi", You are hitting on a Dropbox hurt! 😁🤷 This feature works on collaboration between different accounts only, not between different devices on the same account (as you do). Single account supposed to be used by a single user only and no any synchronization of such type is provided (including between different…

Hi @"karanag", At the beginning refresh token is a possible result of OAuth flow, so 'Refresh Tokens vs OAuth Flow' is somewhat meaningless. 🤷 You can't get to long term access without neither of OAuth flow nor refresh token. @"karanag" wrote:... Is there any way we can increase the validity of the token? ... Probably you…

@"Tobiwan" wrote:... The subfolders get printed only to around 1500 and in a weird order. For the 1500 i probably have to use recusion again right but how do i activate it in that context? ... Hi @"Tobiwan", Currently, in your code, you are using only files_list_folder method. This method starts content listing process and…

@"varunvyas5678" wrote:Hi Greg, I looked into it and got to know that am not getting the Session_Id in the response of upload_session/start callout. ... Hi @"varunvyas5678", Once succeeds, the session id is within response body as JSON text. Fetch it out from there. 😉 Take a look here (for example). Why don't you use the…

@"ravimali12" wrote:I'm facing the below error when I upload more than 150 MB size file. ... Hi @"ravimali12", No file size is a issue, but the fact that you are trying to upload every single file at once (in one transaction). Guaranteed transaction size is 150MB. More isn't reliable. In such a way you are transferring…

@"TC888" wrote:... Is this a bug? ... Hi @"TC888", If you can access non shared file in such a way that for sure would be a bug. Is the file non shared really? 🤔 Taking in account following: @"TC888" wrote:... Is the link generated by "copy link" usable by anyone without authentication? ... Most probably you are talking…

@"ajay699patel" wrote:... I have created an App in Dropbox and generated an access token but it expires in sometime. How can I generate an access token and upload a file without going through authorization flow? ... Hi @"ajay699patel", At the beginning let's clarify that long lived access token is something obsolete and in…

@"HealthFreak" wrote:... Anyway I really just wanted to understand whether this "Boxcryptor for Individuals" would provide better protection for the connection and transfer of files from my Mac/iPhone to Dropbox cloud.. and to iCloud for that matter. ... @"Здравко" wrote:... As @"ROKYRAJ" noted, end-to-end encryption…

As far as I can understand your last clarification - Yes - in this context Dropbox protects your data. You mean connection protection and as I already said before - it's protected. Just don't put end to end encryption in your question, which is something completely different!!! That's what you are asking for is NOT end to…

OMG!!! There are many ways to protect some data. One such a way is to encrypt data and store somewhere. If that's what you are asking for - No - Dropbox doesn't do it. Another way is to protect data transmission between 2 points (usually a device and server). In such a way entire communication (including transferred data)…

@"HealthFreak" wrote:I didn't ask for a definition of End-to-end encryption - ... 😯 Yes, you didn't ask, but seems have no idea what this means! 😁

Hi @"HealthFreak", You question is somewhat meaningless. Probably you want to ask if connection between your device (Mac or iPhone) from one side and Dropbox servers from other side is encrypted. If so, TLS1.2 is in use - might be not the best, but it's reliable enough. As @"ROKYRAJ" noted, end-to-end encryption (E2EE) is…

@"Mousumi Datta" wrote:... I have uploaded the file to dropbox. but the file was not uploaded. ... Hi @"Mousumi Datta", 🤔 Hm... And at the end did you upload the file or not? To be able somebody help you, some additional information would be fine to exists. Most important: What actually is the issue??? How have you tried…

@"Paul R.17" wrote:... Yes, I have tried, but it appears that I run the code, and then I open a browser to `localhost:3000` which then redirects to 2 consecutive pages to authorize access to my app, is there anyway to avoid this authorisation process? ... If you mean to avoid it completely - No (not yet, at least). If you…

@"Paul R.17" wrote:@"Здравко" I tried your demo link to create a token which worked fine, and produced a valid (short life) token which enabled the node-RED node to work OK. ... Hi @"Paul R.17", Not only short lived token, but all needed to use refresh process. @"Paul R.17" wrote:... But could you clarify this link which…

Hi @"Sparkle Muffin", I can't add too much, unfortunately. Most probably you have some other incorrect symbol or representation. Macrons are part of Latin Extended-A subset part of Basic Multilingual Plane. I just created a set a test file name using macrons: ... and as can be seen it works. Check some formatting symbols…

@"giovaniluigi" wrote:Hmm, I meant that its not often that a big company update their server and break all existing code running on their own SDK ... Hi @"giovaniluigi", Might be said, but how would you improve something like long lived access token when it's considered insecure? 🧐 Actually all existing tokens work still,…

@"giovaniluigi" wrote:... I imagined the temporary revoke would be a problem related to the time limit mentioned in recent posts, but I thought the SDK would still work. These are breaking changes... We don't see that often these days. ... 😯 Wow... If you have seen that is less than 100% after 4 hours... 🙂 You have…

@"giovaniluigi" wrote:... Sometimes, after successful authentication the token seems to get revoked by the server after a while. ... Hi @"giovaniluigi", You should take in mind that all new access tokens are short lived access tokens (you can distinguish them with starting "sl."). Despite an existing long lived access…

@"Paul R.17" wrote:... I have already looked at that, but could not understand how/where it would be added to the existing code. ... Hi again @"Paul R.17", 🙂There isn't some only correct answer to your question. It's matter either of every library' and/or application' design. The correct way depends primarily on how you…

Hi @"Paul R.17", Take a look on a simplified example here. You can get idea out from there, I believe. In short, new refresh token has to be added so your application can access desired account long term without additional user interaction. By now you are relying to short lived access token only and that's where your issue…
