@"Tue_Nielsen" I can only offer help with using the Dropbox API itself. For questions about different Business plan options, please contact sales. For help with the Dropbox web site, please contact support.
-
I don't believe we offer access to this, but I'll pass this along as a request to make that available.
-
@"jary_capstone" I'm not sure I understand your use case. Can you elaborate? The Dropbox Saver allows you to specify multiple files, as shown in the sample code you shared, but each file does need to be hosted at a URL accessible to the Dropbox servers so they can be added to the user account(s). The Saver can't be used to…

Thank you! This sort of feedback is very helpful and appreciated. I'll make sure it gets to the right people.

Every browser is implemented differently, so different behaviors may be expected across browsers. (For what it's worth though, I do see the same error here using your code in Chrome on macOS as well.) In any case, you should only start the Chooser from a user-triggered event. E.g., call Dropbox.choose when a button is hit;…
-
Can you elaborate on what exactly isn't working? E.g., please include the full text of the error or output, or describe any unexpected behavior. Thanks in advance!
-
Thanks for the additional feedback! I'm sending this along to the team.

If you're trying to use the Dropbox API from C#, we highly recommend using the official Dropbox .NET SDK, as it will do a lot of the work for you, such as building these objects: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-dotnet If you can't use that for whatever reason, we'll be happy to help with any issues you're having…

You do need to register an API app to use the OAuth app authorization flow. You generally only need to do this once though. If you haven't already, you can do so here. To use the "token" flow, you only need the app key (and a redirect URI of your choosing); to use the "code" flow, you need both the app key and secret. You…

No, the Dropbox API doesn't offer a way for your app to upload files or create access tokens directly from the username and password. You should use the OAuth app authorization flow to get an access token, so your app never directly handles the user credentials. You can find more information on how this works here:…

Thanks for writing this up, and my apologies for the difficulties. I've sent this feedback along to the team. For reference, you can find more information about the transport limit here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/data-transport-limit If a team is consistently hitting this limit, the team admin should…

SwiftyDropbox hasn't been updated for Swift 4, but I'll pass this along as a request to the team.
-
The Dropbox Python SDK doesn't offer a way to track progress of uploads, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.

[Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52295762/swiftydropbox-with-alamofire-issue ] Your Cocoapods installation is reporting that SwiftyDropbox is currently resolving to v2.0.1, but that's actually a somewhat old version. The latest release is v4.6.0. The current version of SwiftyDropbox…

That's more about using Gradle/Maven/Android Studio themselves, so I can't offer much help, as that's outside the scope of Dropbox API support. That said, it looks like their respective official documentation sites have some useful information: * Gradle: https://gradle.org/guides/ *…

Can you share the actual complete code that reproduces this issue? It's hard to say what the problem might be from this description. I do see that you're also escaping each " with a \. That may or may not be necessary, depending on the context in which you're doing this. I can't say without more information, but you may…
-
@"Gamabit" No, unfortunately I don't have any news on this. I'll follow up here as soon as I do.
-
Thanks! That sounds like a good idea. I can't make any promises, but I'll send this along as a feature request.

@"nahtnam" The rate limiting system is somewhat generous, so you generally don't have to worry about that. Even if you do hit the limit, the lockout period is usually just on the scale of minutes. (If you do get a 429 or 503 error, the Retry-After header in the response to see how long to wait.)
-
The value sent in the header should be all ASCII, with JSON-style “\uXXXX” escape codes for the character 0x7F and all non-ASCII characters. The last sample you shared is correct, except for that period. The path format itself is the same as elsewhere in the API. That is, non-root paths should start with "/" and also use…
-
We're still investigating, and I'll follow up here once I have an update. Thanks again!
-
@"nahtnam" No, I'm afraid I don't have any news on this feature request.
-
Thanks for the report! We'll look into it.
-
It looks like you're properly escaping the Unicode characters, but you have an extra period at the end of the string, making it invalid JSON. Remove that extra "." and try again.

Dropbox does offer an API you can use for uploading and downloading files, among other operations. The API was designed with the intention that each user would link their own Dropbox account though, in order to interact with their own files. It is technically possible to connect to just one account like you describe, but…
-
I don't have any news on this yet. I'll let you know when I do.

Apologies, here's the corrected link: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-Support-Feedback/NetworkOnMainThreadException-connecting-to-Dropbox-account/m-p/195874/highlight/true#M17988
-
Thanks for reporting this! This is a bug on our side. We're looking into it.
-
This shoud be fixed now. You should be able to specify the files using their IDs again now and get back the thumbnails. Please let me know if you're still seeing any issues.

I see that you're supplying a 'localhost' URL to the Saver. This won't work, unfortunately, as that URL is not Internet-accessible. The Saver works by having the Dropbox servers themselves access the supplied URL to retrieve the file data. The local client (i.e., the browser in this case) does not actually do the transfer…
