Since there isn't documentation on that behavior of the events list specifically, I can't offer a guarantee. (I wouldn't want to make a promise and lead you astray if it might change in the future!) I recommend using the cursor as documented to make sure you don't miss events.

Thanks for confirming! This was an issue with the search backend that the engineering team worked to resolve. This wasn't related to the scopes migration.

Listing a folder (such as root) can take an arbitrary number of calls, so make sure you're aggregating the results from all of the calls. It's not entirely clear where/when are you actually collecting these result sets. It seems like some of the relevant code may be missing here, but looking at the code you shared, it…

Great, I'm glad that helps. To further clarify a few things though: "I only want the files for that day. If I don't update the cursor, won't that give me all files since the cursor? So that would give me all of the files going back possibly multiple days." One option is to always update your stored cursor to be the latest…

Thanks for the detailed writeup! First, I should note that the 'dropbox-v2-api' package isn't made by Dropbox itself, so I can't really offer support for that or say what it may actually be doing under the hood, but I'll take a look here and advise with respect to the Dropbox API. Anyway, looking over your code and…

Yes, if you're interested in a potential partnership with Dropbox, you can find more information and a contact form here: https://www.dropbox.com/business/technology-partners

That's a custom integration that Dropbox has with Slack, and not something that one can plug in to generally unfortunately. Apologies I don't have better news for you!

No, unfortunately the Extensions functionality only supports individual files, not folders, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though. 

Can you also print out the response body? It should contain a more useful error message.

This should be resolved now. Please let us know if you're still seeing any issues. Thanks!

Thanks for the additional context!

Can you elaborate on what exactly is missing? For example, if you're looking for nested entries, you need to set the recursive mode using ListFolderBuilder.withRecursive.

If pathLower is nil, that means that the folder is not "mounted", so it doesn't have a path in that account. I recommend reading the File Access Guide and the Team Files Guide for more information on how these mechanisms work. For reference, if you need to set the "Dropbox-API-Path-Root" header mentioned there, that's…

@"arpit2011" I see that Здравко has already helpfully answered your questions. To confirm, a shared link is not a path, which is why you got that first error. A path would look like "/folder/file.ext". You can use the ID instead as you attempted, but the /2/files/download endpoint will return that 'path/not_found' error if…

You should be able to get a PathRootError with more error information via PathRootErrorException.getPathRootError. Can you try implementing that in your error handling to get some more information on the issue?

You should use DBFILESUserAuthRoutes.listFolder/DBFILESUserAuthRoutes.listFolderContinue to list the contents of any particular folder (shared or not), by specifying the relevant path. For example, when using DBSHARINGUserAuthRoutes.listFolders/DBSHARINGUserAuthRoutes.listFoldersContinue, you can get the path from the…

There isn't any other guidance or guarantee on the sort order that I can offer beyond what's in the documentation. Rather than relying on timestamps though, we recommend using the latest returned 'cursor' value for a successfully processed batch of events when calling back to /2/team_log/get_events/continue as shown in the…

To clarify, you as the developer, as well all versions of your app, don't need to know the name of the app folder in any particular account, nor will changing the "App folder name" setting interfere with your app's API calls for new or existing users. You don't need to do anything special in your app's code to handle this.…

The name 'TaskListFolderAndAccountId' does not seem to be part of the Dropbox API or Dropbox Java SDK itself. Is that a method name from your own code? In any case, can you share the code you're using to call the API to list the files and folders you're referring to? It sounds like you're probably referring to…

Changing the "App folder name" setting on an app on the App Console will actually only affect the name of new app folders created in the future. Any existing app folders in the accounts of users connected before the change will not be affected. Those existing app folders and their contents will not be changed, moved, or…

No, unfortunately Dropbox doesn't offer the ability to run custom operations directly on Dropbox itself like this. If you need access to the file data to run a tool on it, you'd need to download the file data first. I'll pass this along as a feature request, but I can't promise if or when that might be implemented.

We're currently in the process of migrating Paper documents to live in the Dropbox file system like other Dropbox files. You can find more information on that migration here. For Paper docs as files in the Dropbox file system, you can use the Dropbox Embedder to embed them. To do so, you would get a shared link for the…

While Dropbox still doesn't offer a way to embed arbitrary Paper docs in an iframe directly, for Paper docs as files in the Dropbox file system, you…

I just wanted to follow up on this to let you know that we've released "scopes" functionality on the Dropbox API, which you can use to configure an app or access token to only a limited set of functionality, such as the ability to read but not write files. You can find more information about the release in our blog post…

@"Kieran360" Thanks for your post! Unfortunately I don't have any news on if or when Dropbox may decide to implement and release the ability to programmatically control the selective sync feature. We appreciate the feedback though, and forum posts like this are a good place to send feature requests. 

@"meadowsr" You can add SwiftyDropbox as a dependency from Xcode's UI using File > Swifty Packages > Add Package Dependency. There, you should enter SwiftyDropbox's repository URL: https://github.com/dropbox/SwiftyDropbox You can find more information in Apple's documentation. 

Thanks for the report! Would you be able to share a sample link for a file that has this issue? That way we can reproduce it and investigate here. If you'd prefer to share privately, you can open an API ticket here.
