@"LewisO" wrote:... Other than the above procedures, there is no other direct way to get the thumbnails, despite the software already having full access to local disks, is this correct? Hi @"LewisO", In your question exists some ambiguity. Do you want just access to the local Dropbox folder (consequences don't matter) or…

@"LewisO" wrote:... After reviewing the API documentation, it appears the Dropbox API is designed primarily for web applications and doesn't allow direct access to local Dropbox folder content. Is this correct? ... Hi @"LewisO", In fact No - Dropbox API can be used in standalone applications as well as web based…

@"Ruxianwang" wrote: ... I opened the website, uploaded the same photo and it is the same size 4.7M. ... 👍Ok... As seems you have found a way that works for you. 😉 PS: I just tried on my own to add a photo to Dropbox as you described and download the same picture direct from the phone: As you can see both photos are…

@"Ruxianwang" wrote: ... I do upload photos by hand through the app but somehow it resize everything. I tried the website this morning and the size is the same. ... No, this is impossible. You are in confusion. Files uploaded in such a way are not modified in any way. @"Ruxianwang" wrote: ... But damage has already been…

Hi @"maigantian", The logo you mean is not a Dropbox logo neither something supposing sharing. As seems you have activated archiving/compression. To get rid of it, just turn that off. Hope this helps.

@"Ruxianwang" wrote: ... Is Dropbox compressing photos on the app like this ? Hi @"Ruxianwang", Hm...🤔 Yes, almost (despite not exactly). When Dropbox application performs automatic upload of photo, it don't sync it (or compress already saved Camera photo eventually) as you might think. Something else happens though. When…

Hi @"martymartyr1", You are asking what's going on when you get in over quota in fact. In such a case you ability to sync your files and to update them will be disabled. The only way to touch your files will be to download them using your web browser and, if you want, to delete some of them (again using web browser only).…

Hi again @"RileyL", The example there uses cURL command. This command is available for variety of platforms and free for use (also very powerful - I advise you use it for this and whatever else you would need). Of course, there are other commands that have their params and options. You CANNOT rely that different commands…

@"RileyL" wrote:... I get the reason for the short expirations and I am fine with coding in token refreshes, if I could just get the offline token I need to do it. We are only accessing our own Dropbox account and files, so we don't need other users to do any authorization of their accounts. ... Hi @"RileyL", Whenever you…

@"Cyri129" wrote:... I don't want to give my password and email to users who will use my app. ... Where somebody asked you to give anything to anybody?! 🤷 It's not mentioned, but it's something (just opposite) assumed - anybody credentials (either yours or of your clients) should be keeps in secure place and never be…

Hi @"Cyri129", What you described in the last post is exactly what need to be done. 😉 It's a bit different than your initial post where you're using different applications for different accounts. Take a look and compare your posts. Can you see the difference? In other words, just use the same app key and app secret while…

Hi @"Ashley B.15", You're trying to access some endpoint that's not available or not accessible to you. Check what do you request to in your call and if needed dump your request to see what's there. Good luck.

Hi @"Sheena", thanks for interested in. 🙋 The server issue was active from Thursday to Saturday inclusive. Since Sunday (July 21) lunch (local time), no more issues. 🎉🤞 I hope and believe it will stay so. Thanks again, have a nice day and weekend ahead.

@"Abhi-cyber125" wrote:Can I use PHP instead of JavaScript? Hi @"Abhi-cyber125", Is there something that prevent you do so? 🤔 Rhetoric of course. 😉 Any coding language (either directed or bent over as frontend or backend) that is able to perform network connection is suitable for such use (i.e. all languages in fact). Good…

Hi @"foongzy", It's good idea to dump your var 'filename'. I tried to reproduce your issue but everything works (despite sharing_create_shared_link is deprecated already). Let's see if the filename is some special case. PS: By the way something aside - it's time to think of moving to use refresh token! No long lived access…

@"mikechiu", Your last call succeeds actually. 😉 There is some kind of warning. To be honest I don't know why this is. Greg will tell us what's warned. Just ignore the warning and congratulations - you succeeded. PS: For sure there is some bug in this API endpoint. I believe will be fixed once already known.

@"Greg-DB" wrote:... The Dropbox API does not currently offer an endpoint for listing the contacts in a the account, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. ... Yes, it's a good idea such option to be added @"Greg-DB". This will allow better organized and consistent looking Dropbox integrations as well as lowering…

@"mikechiu" wrote:... I was wondering if there's any setting I need to do ? ... Hi @"mikechiu", At the beginning, post how exactly you launched the failing request to sharing/update_folder_member. By now you listed the members (using /2/sharing/list_folder_members) and it works as far as can be seen. Also, check if by any…

@"Sheena" wrote:..., but I suspect that this was an issue on the ISP side, as that is more common. ... I don't think it could be issue at ISP side at all. What are you motives to think so? 🤔 Motives in opposite direction: * All other sites worked (and continue work) without issue; * Even the connection to Dropbox forum…

Hi again @"Sheena", As seems, the broken link that your server scripts refused to serve is back to normal work from yesterday. I'm writing this post while connected with the same link. Hope you're are doing well and wish you nice monday and week ahead. 😉

Hi @"welr", Did you make sure desired files are available offline in advance? 🧐 If not, give it a try. You'll need to repeat in advance this whenever you want to do something with your project. Good luck.

Post the way (code you use to) you authorize your application and initialize the Dropbox client (without keys, secrets, etc.)

@"awb" wrote: ... Even trying to get a new token with pkce results in the same error. ... I assume that happens on refresh time (despite you don't point it explicitly; correct me if that's not true). That means user's authorization for your application is canceled somehow (using one of the ways you enumerated already). 🤷…

Hi @"awb", Access tokens expire! (~4 hours live) Did you ensure refresh token accompanying the access token and use it on Dropbox client object initialization? Also, you should ensure when for some reason refresh token cannot work (when some of the cases you described comes up), your code asks the user to link your…

It works 1~2 times per day for few clicks (at most) and all the rest is as described above.... As seems by now, it won't work again very soon... 😕 ADD: Another interesting information that isolates the places to debug is that troubles come only from some of the hosts that www.dropboxforum.com resolve to: the defaults -…

Thanks @"Sheena", Ok thanks for clarification. 😉 Let's hope it will be back soon. And yes, I will let you know once I find it's working again. Thanks again.

@"Jay" wrote:Could you clarify exactly what you mean? Is it that links to Dropbox from that site you mentioned don't work at all? ... @"Jay", "exactly what you mean"? Does the traffic dump not enough? Whenever I open anything on www.dropboxforum.com it redirects me to the error page (again, exactly as clearly seen on the…

@"Jay", if the traffic was blocked, would such a message even be visible? It's Dropbox generated! More precisely Dropbox forum. If the traffic was blocked, I would never see it!!! And yes, the above appear only when I use link through https://www.vivacom.bg/. Does Dropbox has some some argues with? Dropbox cuts the link!!!…

Hi @"JohnStrudwick", It's always a good idea to optimize the code whenever possible, so exceptions like rate limit to be less likely (of course, you cannot exclude them completely and should be ready to handle such case always). In your case you have a bunch of things to copy. Why do you need to copy them piece by piece…

@"DBoxTips" wrote:Dropbox core stores and handles at least client_modified for folders, it just doesn't expose it via the API. ... No unfortunately, that's not true. Check again. @"DBoxTips" wrote:... You can confirm that by unchecking an older folder from your Dropbox account in selective sync settings so that it removes…
