The /2/file_properties/properties/add endpoint can be used to add properties to folders, but only for user-owned templates. It doesn't support adding properties to folders for team-owned templates. If you do want to use team-owned templates for this, let me know and I'll pass this along as a feature request.

@"Sam S.6" Thanks for the note! The icon on the display_token page actually doesn't use the app's own icon in any browser (unlike the authorize_submit page), but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though. Also, the profile picture for the account is rendering for…

Checking if the `rev` value has changed is certainly a valid way of determing if your copy of the may be out of date. Alternatively, you can make use of the following methods to efficiently keep track of any changes in a particular folder: * ListFolderAsync * ListFolderContinueAsync * ListFolderLongpollAsync…

Can you please try again now and let me know if you're still seeing this issue? Please start again from /2/files/search_v2 to get a new cursor though. Thanks in advance! 

Yes, that's correct. Let us know if you run in to any issues.

To delete files, you should use /2/files/delete_v2 or /2/files/delete_batch. Those require you to specify exactly which files to delete. To first find files any/all files with modified datetimes older than a certain date, you can use /2/files/list_folder[/continue]. Those allow you to list the metadata for all files and…

@"Testman" It sounds like you're referring to using the official Dropbox API v2 .NET SDK. You can find information on how to implement the OAuth 2 app authorization flow to get an access token using that here: https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/T_Dropbox_Api_DropboxOAuth2Helper.htm

To allow other users to connect their Dropbox accounts to your app, you should implement the OAuth app authorization flow in your app. The process would start from inside your app itself, e.g., in response to some user input indicating that they want to connect to Dropbox, such as them clicking a button in your UI. You can…

@"jorge_ricardopc" Creo que no entiendo tu última pregunta. Abra un ticket y díganos a qué URI de webhook se refiere y muéstrenos lo que está viendo para que podamos ayudarlo mejor. ¡Gracias por adelantado! --- Por favor disculpe nuestras traducciones.

@"jorge_ricardopc" Acabo de probar esto y me lo han enviado correctamente. Si no funciona para usted, abra un ticket API con los detalles para que podamos verificar el suyo en particular. https://www.dropbox.com/developers/contact --- Por favor disculpe nuestras traducciones.

Thanks! For the folder information, there is /2/paper/docs/get_folder_info, but that does require one call per Paper doc, so I can see that being inefficient for some use cases. I've sent this along as a feature request for a better solution.

@"-o" Dropbox does offer an API you can use for listing, uploading, and downloading files, among other operations. You can find everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation, tutorials, and SDKs here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers For example, to upload files you can…

I don't have an update on this yet. I'll check in with the team and let you know as soon as I have any news.

Thanks! That's helpful. That error message is indicating that the API call failed because the endpoint doesn't expect those two URL parameters you supplied. The /2/files/create_folder_v2 endpoint is an RPC style endpoint, meaning that it expects the API call parameters to be sent as JSON in the request body, not URL…

* "API sometimes throws 500 Internal Server Error but still creates doc": Thanks! That's helpful. We'll look into it. * "No ID of document": I see, thanks. For that method, the doc ID is a required input parameter, so I imagine it wasn't expected that the output would necessarily need the doc ID, since the client already…

[Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57399506/need-help-on-integrating-dropbox-with-postman ] We'll be happy to help with any questions or issues you have regarding the Dropbox API. Can you elaborate more on what you're currently stuck on? Please share any relevant code and error output that…

Thanks for the detailed feedback! We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with the API. I'm sending these specific pieces of feedback and feature requests along to the team. To address a few points in particular: * "No ID of document?!": I'm not sure I understand what you're referring to. The Paper API…

@"JosephGarza" No, unfortunately I don't have any news on this request.

1) We don't have a documented guarantee of the exact format of Dropbox OAuth 2 access tokens, but the current implementation does not use "&". 2) You can create and use multiple access tokens for the same app-user pair. Clicking "Generate" a second time will not invalidate the first access token. 3) An access token is all…

The team_team_folder_list method is defined on the DropboxTeam class, so you'll need to instantiate a DropboxTeam and call it on that (instead of just Dropbox). That is, that first line should look like this instead: dbx = dropbox.DropboxTeam(access_token) Also, note that the team_team_folder_list does not take a 'path'…

There is a 'rate_limit' error on the /2/sharing/add_folder_member endpoint, but we don't have a specific number documented. I also can't promise if bounced emails are or aren't a factor in this. Since that's not documented, it's subject to change anyway.

@"PowZone" No, unfortunately I don't have any news on this.

The Dropbox API doesn't offer a way to get the child link like this unfortunately, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though. 

What version number of the Dropbox Java SDK do you have installed? It's possible you have an older version from before this was supported for the delete method. If you're not already using the latest release, currently v3.1.1, please upgrade to that and let me know if that doesn't help.

@"cgirecruitment1" I see you opened a new thread for this so I'll follow up there: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-Support-Feedback/Delete-File-delete-path-not-working/m-p/358771#M20440

@"cgirecruitment1" You should be able to use the delete method with file IDs. Can you share the actual code and path parameter value you're using that's resulting in this error? Thanks in advance! 

We've added a new field to TeamSpaceAllocation named 'user_within_team_space_used_cached' that should match the value reported on the Dropbox web site. This is currently available in the API, and should be available in the next release of each of the official SDKs.

@"offbeata" Apologies for the delay. This should be working as expected again now. Please try again and let me know if it is or isn't working properly. Thanks!
