@"streetcodernate" wrote:... but when I check the /CSV_UPLOADS folder, the file that was supposed to be uploaded isn’t there! Hi @"streetcodernate", Does you application have full account access or only application folder access? 🧐 If it's the second case where are you actually looking for your CSV_UPLOADS folder? 🤔 In…

Hah...😁 Everything and nothing. Dropbox API, used either directly or through some SDK, provides access to client account content. You, with your code, can list that content, read it, write there, etc. If you want to sync something (or any other particular operation - representable as a sequence of elementary API…

@"melikastone1385" wrote:Which API can I use ... Hm🤔... What about Dropbox API? 🧐 (HTTP calls in their nature).

@"ripemach" wrote:... I need the App Id, App secret ... https://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps 😉 Create a such here.

@"Dinesh K" wrote: ... request body: could not decode input as JSON. Hi @"Dinesh K", As mentioned in /2/file_properties/properties/add documentation, parameters has to be passed within the call body and formatted in JSON. According to the posted error message, that's not the case (i.e. your parameters are NOT formatted…

@"Tech Dev Oldsmar" wrote:This would be a killer feature. Hope it might happen. 😁 Better don't rely too much. Not on the Dropbox at least. "would be a killer feature": why would be? 🧐 it is actually. While Dropbox application is installed on your machine and works properly, the feature is available there. Dropbox…

Hi @"production_tvox", Long lived access tokens (despite existing can still be used) can NOT be issued any more. You should add in your code support for refresh token. Like the long lived access token, refresh token doesn't expire till revoke explicitly. If you are using in your application one of Dropbox SDKs, the only…

Yes, and that's on a file you can successfully open now... Does some troublesome file left? (that you haven't "copying" yet) 🧐 What's the same menu showing there?

@"TOMSAL" wrote:... all my files are already local. Just doublechecked.. How do you "doublechecked" it? What is the emblem on some troublesome file? is it a tick on green background or white cloud? @"TOMSAL" wrote:..., copying the file does solve the problem for now. ... Of course, it will always do in such a way. 😉…

Hi @"TOMSAL", The best thing you can do is turn your "Smart Sync" (especially in quotes) off and make your files local (not "online only" with cloud emblem). If you don't want to turn off entire (Non)"Smart sync" for some reason, do this (set to local) on all files you are working on currently, at least. Hope this helps.

Hi @"Mostafa Ezzat", Let's try some authentication process step by step. 🙂 It may succeed. At the beginning make sure you have your App key and App secret at hand from App Console page. Select desired application there and once got there in and scroll to field "App key" and "App secret" (for the secret "Show" should be…

Strange things happen here. All paths (including the importlib one) are correct. Everything seems normal except the error. 🤷 An error saying that is missing something reported already as being there! 😯 I'm out of further ideas. Let's hope somebody else can continue with more "fresh" ideas. Good luck @"joekur"!

@"joekur" wrote:... Seems my computer is being stubborn.🤐 ... Hah... 😁 Yes, seems so. 🤔 I'm using exactly the same versions, like you do, and everything works. Just added one more line to figure out where exactly your Python is looking for machinery.py. 🤷 That looks like something impossible - the file is there, but can…

Hi @"joekur" again, Wow..., that's something really strange. 🤔 The mentioned class and wrapper module (and package) are something standard to Python (importlib.machinery.SourceFileLoader). 🤷 Seems, your install gets broken somehow. What's the Python version you are using? Take on result from: python3 --version It should be…

Hi @"joekur", Sometimes it's difficult to find out what's exactly the source of troubles. In such situations additional diagnostic information can show some directions you might missed yet. I'm putting here one script targeting such diagnostic information: #!/usr/bin/python3 import os, sys, json; from importlib.machinery…

I fully agree with to your suggestions, @"Quuzuu"! 😉 Let's hope some developer will get impressed... 😁 But you shouldn't rely too much... such thing is very unusual... 🤷 ... unfortunately.

@"TessaP" wrote:... I read the above tips but there is not enough specific information for me to solve it. I use the key and secret that rdrop2 provides, store it and call it. It would be very helpful if someone can provide code in R to solve this, or provide more information how to request 'offline access' as suggested.…

Hi @"dolclarkson", You need file request. Such can be created here: https://www.dropbox.com/requests Hope this helps.

Hi @"Quuzuu", Your "favicon.png" files count isn't so big. So should not be a big task to compare local and online equivalents. While keep open the local search results, try the same with search bar in web interface of your account. Is there some more additional file(s) or time stamp of matching results differs? 🤔 Hope…

Hi @"Steven_R", As far as I can see, you are trying authorization by code and mix two different access points calls involved in the auth flow in use - /oauth2/authorize and /oauth2/token. "token_access_type" is valid and usable in the first call, not the second one! 😉 That's where resides your error. On possible results…

@"Steven_R" wrote:... Is there a known issue where some tokens are invalid? No, just generation of long lived tokens is dropped already. Existing could still be used. You should care to include in your authentication flow the refresh token, generated when you select 'offline' (like it was for long lived token). Take a look…

Hi @"ShiminCai", There isn't file size limit (there is actually but it's big enough, so doesn't matter), but it's a single transaction limit - not guaranteed more than 150MB. As can be seen in your code you are using single transaction upload only. Is it so, or just something is missing in your post. In such a case you are…

Hi @"renkoha", 🤔 To be honest, I'm not sure what are you asking really. All you need to do is already on your screenshots. On first screenshot is a message "127.0.0.1 domain does not match any Chooser/Server domains. Register app domains on app settings." 🧐 As far as I can see on the second screenshot (your app settings)…

@"Itai M." wrote:... Can you please check what causes this failure and suggest the proper way to handle this. ... Hi @"Itai M.", 🙂 You question is little bit philosophical. Main subpart of your question could be is there some failure at all?! In general software exception is a way some function/method (or generally code…

Does anybody know if there is any other endpoint for me to use and create a folder within a shared folder using the "shared_folder_id"? Hi…

Hi @"mr_neffets", Unfortunately nothing has been fixed yet. Dropbox support only Basic Multilingual Plane subset of all Unicode code points. 🤷 As far as I know this never changed. @"mr_neffets" wrote:Just a week or so ago, I had to go through a process of renaming a bunch of pdfs because they included diacritics (e.g. á,…

Hi @"marksmithhfx", I suppose, you haven't logged out of your Dropbox account in your web browser and haven't forced reauthentication (it's so by default). In this context - Yes, it's something normal. 😉

Hi @"DeliberatelyDisasterDeterred", Take a look on some competitors. pCloud, for example, can provide backup for different online services (including Dropbox) on reasonable price, I think. Good luck!

@"oatcake" wrote:... I'm specifically asking how to go about allowing access to multiple end-users, that are securely logged into my app, to access the same Dropbox account ... Hi @"oatcake", Seems you haven't read carefully my previous posts above. Ok, your account is identified and authenticated with corresponding…

Probably I'm not clear enough... Yes Dropbox API uses secure connection and, Yes, data transfer is protected. That's not a possible issue. To be initiated any transfer (secure or not, doesn't matter) authentication token is need to provide access to your account in client browser. It's impossible a client to get access to…
