  • Hi @"James_T", Have you took a look on where parameters have to be put on? 🤔 Into header part of the HTTP query or into data part? 🧐 What are you doing actually? 🙂 Hope this tip gives right direction.
  • Hi @"mastis", You are renaming a folder 'FromFolder', in your account root, to name 'ToFolder'. Am I right? Are you sure such a folder exists? 🧐 Did you try to list your root' content; is there 'FromFolder'? Try that! Just take in mind when application is restricted to its own folder, that's the root which application can…
  • Hi @"wmbass123", When you create a shared link (pointing to some file or folder, including "pdf" file), by default it's preview link and ends with "?dl=0". You can transform such a link to downloadable link by replace link ending, mentioned before, to "?dl=1". If you want direct access to the pointed file content, set the…
  • @"Mark", those folders aren't listed in Shared!
  • @"JOfE" wrote:... I have never shared them. ... Hi @"JOfE", Are you sure you "have never shared them"? 🧐 🙂 I'm sure in just opposite. At some moment you have shared the folders, in focus, to some people. Later the share recipient(s) remove their-self from the sharing. Finally as a result (most probably a bug) the folder(s)…
  • Hi @"JOfE", 🤔 Hm... That's really strange. Is there any chance you have received that directory by somebody as a shared folder and after that the owner has got out of share without transfer ownership to you? 🧐 In such a case you would been the only person referring particular directory without being owner, so it's shared…
  • Hi @"leftnotracks", 🙂 I have never said to look on Account Preferences, what you are actually doing! In my post is "Account Settings". 😉 Follow the link and find "Early releases" there. Make sure it's turn off. Since your version is automatically updated to beta, this is turn definitely on now. Hope this helps.
  • Hi @"leftnotracks", If you want to avoid install betas, just turn off "Early releases" in your account settings.

Any update on native Apple Silicon support? @"Walter" wrote: Hey there @"leftnotracks"; sorry to jump in here, but have you tried any more recent builds of the desktop app? The latest stable version, for example, is…
  • @"TG6" wrote:... NOT effect affect the original account, which I do not have the log in information for. Yes, it won't affect original account, but you can fall in troubles, cause your folders got move and not on their usual places!
  • @"TG6" wrote:... so when I click on shared folders it brings me to the shared folders in my personal account online. Not the shared folder that is on my desktop, that is from another account. You have to do it on the same account associated to your Desktop! 🙂 Then it's the same folder; just different points of view. On the…
  • Hi @"TG6", Would be enough to get in your shared folders, find the particular share, and finally remove it using "Remove from Dropbox" on ellipsis menu associated with the list entry. 😉 That's it. Hope this helps.
  • @"sleepysloth" wrote:This just didn't produce anything for me. ... That's a good news generally. 🤷 If there is some result produced, it would be error and the result would direct where particular error comes up. In your case you haven't issues related to OS permission, for example, or similar able to prevent sync. I can't…
  • @"tomcho" wrote: ... Since posting the comment I learned that what I thought was smart sync was actually selective sync (which *is* simple and *is* available for Linux). The customer support person I originally asked this either did a very bad job at explaining to me what's what, or was as confused as I was. In any case,…
  • Hi @"Diana28", Business account or not, when you share something "outside", links (if they are not request links) are always read only. 🤷 That's it. The last change how the sharing tools look like predisposes such confusions, unfortunately. Some time ago, link receiving and file/folder share was 2 completely independent…
  • @"sleepysloth" wrote:That's the only thing it displayed. I did it again and it still just displayed "bash: cd: too many arguments" and nothing else. 🤔Hm... The only chance such things to happen is using within file/folder name some unusual symbol, like semicolon, and some very old bash interpreter version. For actual…
  • @"sleepysloth" wrote: ...The second one took quite awhile. Eventually it produced "bash: cd: too many arguments." 🤔 I confess, can't be sure what this means. If your folders/files count is big, the time for enumerating and evaluating every one is proportional, so it's normal to "took quite awhile". There is single "cd"…
  • Ok, all seems fine. Let's see the last steps. Check the current status using following: dropbox status Post the result and try again the following: (IFS=$'\n'; for a in `find /mnt/sdc1/Dropbox -type d -print`; do if [[ "$a" =~ "/.dropbox" ]]; then echo "<empty>"; else cd $a; echo "In directory $a:"; dropbox filestatus; fi;…
  • @"MT-Tester" wrote: ... In the Support part I already knew that they were not useful (they seems bots). ... Hi @"MT-Tester", 😁😆They don't seem bots! That's a bot. 😉 @"MT-Tester" wrote: ... I'm logged in to the Dropbox app on a mobile device. ... That's your chance to regain access to the account. 😉 Use "Connect a computer"…
  • @"Diana28" wrote: ...I want to share a folder on my Dropbox with someone outside of my team. I am using an admin account which is part of a Business Dropbox account. I can create a read-only link but when I go onto Settings there is no way to change the permissions granted by the link. ... Hi @"Diana28", 🙂 You have to…
  • Hi @"Jeff_S1", Seems, you are thinking in exactly opposite way instead of what "Selective Sync" implementation assumes to. 🙂 As seems you have noticed (to some extent) that using command (or GUI) folder tend to be excluded, not included, so how exactly you can add a subfolder in a missing (excluded) folder?! 🧐 Try to do…
  • Hi @"softwaremedicalshare", Just for clarity: When I mentioned "and on token generation", the meaning was for queried permissions there, not eventual token break! When you have created your application you have declared the possible scopes this application can have access to. Seems your declaration covers "sharing.write"…
  • Hi @"softwaremedicalshare", Did you ensure "sharing.write" permission for your application (both in Application console and on token generation)? Hope this gives right direction.
  • Hi @"Greg-DB", Seems, my example gets misunderstood. In the example changes detection is just a example part, not a final target! I'm aware how a change could be detected. Problem arise when multiple changes could happen in same time. Changes detection can't be used for conflicts avoid in such cases. I have no idea how…
  • While talking for missing features that have to be added, let's mention missing adequate API dedicated for serialization. Currently something similar tends to be "2/files/lock_file_batch" and "2/files/unlock_file_batch". While previous API calls are usable to serialize user (human) work, the same calls can't be used for…
  • 🤔🧐 Strange! Maybe your computer is too slow!? Anyway... Let's try in smaller steps. Try stop the daemon at first, using following: dropbox stop dropbox status Execute above commands one by one. Repeat "dropbox status", if needed, till result "Dropbox isn't running!". Once the status shows that daemon gets completely…
  • @"8ccarlile" wrote:... Is there any way to somehow extend the data presented in the API response? ... Hi @"8ccarlile", Seems, my impression related to your final intent is wrong. The fastest way to get actual data of pointed file is using "2/files/download" API call. That's why I pointed this way. If for some reason you…
  • Hi @"8ccarlile", You have already everything need to reach file content, using the "2/files/download" API call. 😉 Hope this helps.
  • Hi @"sleepysloth", Now everything seems better. Should be some other issue. Can you post the log on dropbox start? Actually, post the result of: dropbox stop; rm -rf /mnt/sdc1/Dropbox/.dropbox*; dropbox start Wait for the moment when startup process finished completely. Let's see if there are some helper messages…
  • Hi guys, One way to workaround could be keep a list of cursors on regular basis and use the desired to enumerate latest (using /list_folder/continue). 😉 Hope this gives idea. Add: Final solution could be Dropbox adds support of double directional lists. Currently API calls (like /list_folder or…
