Hi @"af11", Are you aware of 'annotations' in Python? 🧐 I suppose you got confused on following point in code: @app.route('/welcome')def welcome(): return render_template('welcome.html', redirect_url=get_url('oauth_callback'), webhook_url=get_url('webhook'), home_url=get_url('index'), app_key=APP_KEY) What is the leading…

@"Greg-DB" wrote:... In this HTTP 2 sample, the final 200 does have "Content-Length". Just one addition to avoid confusion: There is temporary rollback, that's why "Content-Length" just appear without workaround! 😜 That gonna change at March beginning. 😉 @"mbvistaprint", you can see in the @"Greg-DB"'s post for HTTP/1.1…

Hi @"saeeda", As your code is not fully represented, may be something lefts hidden. 🤔 @"saeeda" wrote:... httpService.get('/dropbox/listfolders', {"cursor": cursor})// this endpoint from our server side when the cursor !== '' then call continue ... ... "then call continue" - Are you sure? It looks like it's not and you are…

Hi @"mbvistaprint", From the description you gave to here, seems your environment is using HTTP protocol version less than 2. Dropbox server "keeps strictly" the "chunked" encoding in such a case and it's difficult to turn it off. The mentioned by me above works for HTTP v2, but not in other (in particular not in v1.1) and…

Hmm... In such a case I'm up to here. In my test when transfer encoding is off (i.e. set to Identity) "content-length" comes up: x-content-security-policy: sandbox x-content-type-options: nosniff x-robots-tag: noindex, nofollow, noimageindex x-server-response-time: 46 x-webkit-csp: sandbox content-type: application/json…

@"Greg-DB" wrote:... I just tried a HEAD request on your sample link with "dl=1" sending the same request headers you specified for that one and I do get the expected redirects and successful response (that is, a 301, then a 302, then a 200). Hmm... 🤔 And what about the "content-length" with "the same request headers"?…

Hi @"mbvistaprint", Hah... 😁 One more bug... 🤷 It's definitely not the same like the one I linked to before. Here as far as I can see Dropbox server gets confused from Accept-Encoding header. You haven't posted you query, but most probably there your web client pushed all supported encodings. What seems confusing to…

Hi @"mbvistaprint", To see the headers received, you can dump "Headers" property of your "response", if you want. 😉

Short lived token is valid for 4 hours only! If that works for you... Ok. I don't know how you are using API, but most probably you can continue in the same way about the token. 😉

Hi @"Jeff B.63", The best way to check commands format is API explorer, I think. Just select the access point you want to explore and fill the proper parameters. Click "show code" and select "HTTP request". That's it. By the way you can use "list_folder/continue" after "list_folder" to see entire folder content in case of…

Hi @"saeeda", Hmm... 🤔 Are you updating your cursor as returned by each "file/list_folder/continue" call or are you using the one received from "file/list_folder" only? 😉 Hope this gives idea.

Hi @"mbvistaprint", Let's hope the bug will be fixed soon. I believe staff working on it will follow up on the forum thread referred above on update. Good luck!.. to all of us. 😉

Hi @"Musicstate", The issue you are experiencing isn't related to any access or permission troubles. It's just a standard error message for everything (with or without real permission issues). The issue is definitely related to the path you selected for your Dropbox folder. It may be due to change/move in this path, for…

@"Greg-DB" wrote:... for files, but not folders. Created time is not available for either. ... Hmm... 🤔 Not entirely true! It seems Dropbox (as system) keeps folders creation moment internally (I have no idea why). It's another thing that this creation time is not accessible using Dropbox API for the folders. 😉 Actually…

It's meaningless if you are using direct API calls or some SDK. You should be able access the same features anyhow (to the discussed context, at least). @"Diegovsky" wrote:... Regarding timestamps of folders, I just selected this folder and it shows me this info ... 😁Don't mess you local folder properties with those…

@"Diegovsky" wrote:Watching for changes isn't feasible if the user turns off their computer or loses connectivity. ... Also, maintaining a live connection with dropbox would kinda suck since it would keep constantly polling for changes (which is expensive) and will consume a lot of band/API requests. ... Is there a better…

@"mbvistaprint" wrote: ... We're unable to confirm the file size from the shared link. ... Hi @"mbvistaprint", To be clear what exactly is the problem, you have to provide some example, at least, or describe the way you are using to "confirm the size". Size is reported correctly as always. Nothing has changed recently…

Hi @"bolddp", Hah.. Seems really the HEAD requests response brings up bugs. 🤷 Let's hope this trouble will be fixed soon. By the way you can temporary workaround with a ****** GET request with a single byte range. 😉 Just make sure within the GET request is a header like: Range: bytes=0-0 Hope this helps to some extent.

No, it will NOT affect the existing long lived tokens, if any. Take in mind that if existing long lived token gets revoked (when application is gonna reinstall, for example; not just update with reusing of existing configuration) then only short lived token (together with refresh token) could be used from that moment on.

Hi @"parvezalam", I understand what you are asking for, but there is no other way, as far as I know. @"parvezalam" wrote: ...Also is there anyway to check if the folder is already mounted. ... If you take a look on documentation: Unmounted shared folders can be identified by the absence of SharedFolderMetadata.path_lower.…

@"parvezalam" wrote:... Till now what I found to get the sharedfolderId is to use ListMountableFoldersAsync method, but that will return all mountable folders Can we get shareFolderId with folder name. Hi @"parvezalam", Within the same object where you have found "sharedfolderId" must be one more field named "name", if you…

@"Mark" wrote:... intentional way is shockingly bad 😞 Yeah... especially! 😡 It's your "conscious decision" not to label it as a BUG, as it is actually 🤷 (On my opinion). There is no any technical restriction! Mostly... development laziness! Even no development actually - no any difference related to other platforms... Only…

i.e... BUG!!!

Hi @"Jaidan B.", All Dropbox moderators are able to see our conversation and forward to development if they decide to. The only more thing you can try open a support ticket, but... don't rely too much. 🤷 There are almost same persons. Do as you decide. Dropbox folder ZIP compression isn't consistent and that's why you…

Hah.. 🤷 Really puzzling! Ok, try off repeat the same as above, but just before starting Dropbox application anew remove all already copied to local Dropbox folder files from Dropbox online using your browser. Let's hope when there is only one copy to sync (from local to online), won't be any conflict condition. Let's see...

Hi @"Jaidan B.", Hmm... 🤔 That sounds like you have triggered some bug. It's known that Dropbox application isn't the most stable one. 🤷 Try to workaround by downloading missing files while the application is off. In addition you can clear the cache. Start with following in terminal: dropbox stop rm -rf…

Hi @"Jaidan B.", You did really hard troubleshooting work! That's truly strange. 🤔 After OS from scratch install and application install from scratch too (including without data),... nothing should be able stop the initial syncing at lest. The only part of your troubleshooting you can pay a little more attention is:…

Hi @"eduardoml", Have you created a public link using https://dropbox-sdk-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/dropbox.html#dropbox.dropbox_client.Dropbox.sharing_create_shared_link_with_settings, for example. Or you can use…

Hi @"Aristide", Are you sure the particular file is your property or the owner lets you reshare aside him? 🤔 The error message leads to response No 🤷 (it's neither your property nor given permission to you or your account). Hope this gives direction.
