  • Downloading this kind of link via sharing_get_shared_link_file should work now. Please try again and let me know if you're still seeing any issues.

  • @"amit-kumar" The 503 issue on get_shared_link_file should be fixed now. Please try again and let me know if you're still seeing any issues.
    in Dropbox download api is not working Comment by Greg-DB July 2019
  • The Dropbox API doesn't offer a way to list/filter files only for a specific date, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though. Instead, you'll need to list items using the /2/files/list_folder[/continue] endpoints via the process and pagination detailed in the…

  • Thanks for the report! Just to clarify, when you say you "can't seem to get it to work", what specifically fails, and with what error message? There may be an issue on our side with this so we'll be happy to look into it, but I'd like to make sure I know exactly what isn't working for you and how first. Thanks in advance.
    in Can I create a shared link that requires login? Comment by Greg-DB July 2019
  • The closest thing the Java SDK offers is the ability to set custom hosts via a DbxHost, using this DbxClientV2 constructor. I don't have any sample code for that. I don't believe it would let you change the protocol or port though.
    in Unable to customize port and protocol in dropbox SDK Comment by Greg-DB July 2019
  • The Dropbox Java SDK doesn't officially support changing the port or protocol (all calls have to be done over TLS so the port is always 443), but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

  • No, unfortunately the Dropbox Paper API doesn't offer a way to create custom eomji programmatically, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

  • I can't give a guarantee, but I expect this should be solved soon. It will likely be on the scale of a day or two, if not sooner.

  • It's also now possible to set the profile picture using /2/account/set_profile_photo.

  • The Dropbox API doesn't currently offer a way to create shortcuts like this programmatically, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though. (Just uploading the same kind of JSON as the API would export won't work; Dropbox itself needs to specially set it as a…
    in Shortcuts created using API do not work Comment by Greg-DB July 2019
  • Dropbox doesn't offer automated triggers quite like that, but Dropbox does offer an API you can use for listing, uploading, and downloading files, among other operations. You could use it to program your own custom automation. You can find everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation,…

  • Good news, we've released an endpoint for creating a Paper folder via the API. You can find the documentation for it here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#paper-folders-create

Please feel free to reply here on the forum with any other questions you have, or if you'd rather email privately, you can open an API ticket with your questions here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/contact

  • The specific parameters and context for the API calls here likely matter, so we'll follow up with you in your support ticket to troubleshoot this privately. 
    in Download a file using the api Comment by Greg-DB July 2019
  • By default, API calls will operate in the private team member folder. It sounds like you want to access the team space though. To do so, you need to set the "path root" for the API call to be the team space. I recommend reading the Namespace Guide, which covers this in detail. In the Python SDK in particular, to specify a…

  • @"ijunaid8989" All of the upload sessions that you wish to finish using /finish_batch need to be "closed" before you call /finish_batch. That message is indicating that the upload session was not closed. You should close the upload session with the last call you make to upload the final data for that upload session,…
    in too many write operations when uploading files Comment by Greg-DB July 2019
  • In the Dropbox Python SDK, you can specify this header using DropboxTeam.as_user. You can get the team member IDs from a number of places, such as DropboxTeam.team_members_get_info, or DropboxTeam.team_members_list/DropboxTeam.team_members_list_continue.

  • @"jondotcom" No, unfortunately I don't have an update on this request.
    in Dropbox Paper folder creation API Comment by Greg-DB July 2019
  • The webhook notification includes the account ID of the user who had changes in their account. You can use that account ID to look up the user in your app so you know which one to update. This means you do need to record the Dropbox account IDs originally, but exactly how you manage your app's user model and database is up…

  • @"astaley" Thanks for the note! That looks like a usable workaround if the link is publicly accessibly. To clarify for others, you can directly download from links like this by using the URL parameters documented here. This is unrelated to the actual Dropbox API though, and would only work if the link is publicly…
    in Dropbox download api is not working Comment by Greg-DB July 2019
  • Yes, the Dropbox API does offer a way to programmatically create shared links like that. Note that the other forum thread isn't exactly describing what you want to do though. To create shared links using the Dropbox API, you should use the /2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings endpoint:…
    in Generate downloadable links Comment by Greg-DB July 2019
  • First, to clarify, if you're only using a Dropbox API app, not a Dropbox Business API app, you should not use the "Dropbox-API-Select-Admin". You can access the Dropbox API endpoints, such as the list_folder endpoints, without that header. The basic flow for using webhooks with list_folder would go like this: * the user…
