  • The Dropbox Saver doesn't support blob URLs, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.
  • I don't have any news on this unfortunately, nor am I aware of any current plans to implement it. I'll add your vote to the request.
  • This is for the forum for help using the Dropbox API, but it sounds like you're using the local filesystem and Dropbox desktop client, not the Dropbox API, so I'm afraid I can't offer help. If you're looking for help with scheduling jobs on Windows and manipulating the local file system, I recommend referring to the…
  • Thanks for writing this up! We appreciate the time and detail. Yes, while the Dropbox API has a general rate limiting system (meant to prevent abuse), you're correct that (some) Business plans additionally have a 25k per team per month API limit on upload calls. This does not apply to any individual plans. It only applies…
  • Apologies, it looks like this thread was caught by the spam filter for some reason. I've restored it. I see you posted a new thread for this, so I've closed this one in favor of the new one: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-support/dropbox-API-call-upload-limits-confirming-some-things-and/m-p/269680
  • Thanks for the report! I'll bring this up with the team.
  • We can't offer much help with Node itself or using pipes in Node in particular, but for reference, the Dropbox API /2/files/upload endpoint returns the uploaded file metadata as JSON in the HTTPS response body. Exactly what you do with that and how you handle it is up to you, so you may be better helped by asking for…
  • 1: This sounds more like a product decision, so we can't offer a "right" answer. For comparison, Dropbox has to deal with essentially the same scenario. That is, when both the local and remote copies of a file have changed before the file could be synced. Dropbox creates "conflicted copies" in this case, in order to make…
  • The correct Content-Type should be returned now, even when using file ID. Hope this helps!
  • Thanks for the request! I can't make any promises, but I'm sending this along to the team.
  • It's not possible to cancel an ongoing request instantly unfortunately, but the long poll request will eventually close or time out on its own. I'll pass this along as a feature request for actual CancellationToken support in the SDK though.
  • @"DSnopov" The sharingCreateSharedLink method is deprecated, so we don't recommend using it. However, we don't currently have a timeline for when it will be retired.
  • @"mark2mark" The forum flagged your post as spam for some reason. I restored it. Thanks!
  • The Dropbox PHP you're using here uses API v1, which is retired, so it will no longer work: https://blogs.dropbox.com/developers/2016/06/api-v1-deprecated/ You'll need to migrate to API v2. We don't have an official PHP SDK for Dropbox API v2, but you can use a third party library:…
  • 1. Die Dropbox-API Version 1 wurde eingestellt und nicht mehr verwendet. Daher kann sie nicht mehr verwendet werden. Dropbox API v2 ist der Ersatz, und es bietet auch die Möglichkeit, Dateien über die Kommunikation mit den Dropbox-API-Servern programmatisch hochzuladen und herunterzuladen. Wir haben verschiedene offizielle…
  • A RetryException can be raised for a variety of reasons. In any case though, when your app receives one, it should just retry the API call as documented. If you're unexpectedly/persistently getting this when you don't think you should be though, please share the details, e.g., the steps to reproduce the issue, so we can…
  • The Dropbox Chooser does not return an access token, nor does it use the OAuth app authorization flow at all. Instead, it returns to your app information about the selected file(s), including links to the file data. There's more information about this in the documentation here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/chooser In…
  • The API was designed with the intention that each user would link their own Dropbox account, in order to interact with their own files. However, it is technically possible to connect to just one account. The SDKs don't offer explicit support for it and we don't recommend doing so, for various technical and security…
  • Thanks for pointing that out! I'll check in with the team on this discrepancy and follow up here once I have an update on this.
  • The Dropbox API doesn't offer that functionality, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.
  • API calls can fail with a generic HTML page like this if the server doesn't recognize the HTTP request as an API call. Is the sample HTTP request you shared exactly what's actually being sent? If so, it's not valid because it's missing the HTTP version (i.e., "HTTP/1.1") at the end of the first line. Also, in the sample…
  • Are you able to print out the full /oauth2/token HTTP response body for this error? It should contain a more detailed error message along with 'invalid_grant'. Also, why are you using "https://www.dropbox.com/callback"? That's not a valid page on dropbox.com. (You can use https://www.dropbox.com/1/oauth2/redirect_receiver…
  • Thanks! It looks like you're referring to using Nemiro.OAuth.LoginForms, which is made by a third party, so I'm afraid I can't offer support for it. This error is coming from that library, not the Dropbox API itself. I recommend referring to the documentation for that library, or opening an issue for it.
  • [Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49308642/file-manager-for-dropbox-in-c-sharp ] I'll be happy to help with any issues you're having with the Dropbox API, but I'll need some more information. Please reply with: - the name and version of the platform and SDK/library you are using - the steps…
  • Just registering an app (i.e., creating it on the App Console), does not automatically create the "app folder" in your account. The app folder is only created in the account once the app is "linked" to the account (i.e., when the user goes through the OAuth app authorization flow to authorize the app to connect to their…
  • The Dropbox API allows you to upload and download files of any type, but it doesn't offer database hosting. That is, you can upload and download database files to/from Dropbox, but you can't issue database queries/commands to the databases stored in files on Dropbox directly.
  • If you registered your app to use the "app folder" permission (e.g., as opposed to "full Dropbox"), the app will only be able to see files inside the special app folder created for it. Any paths you use will be automatically interpreted relative to that app folder. The app folder is by default (for the English locale)…
  • The links returned by /2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings (and list_shared_links) are the closest to "permanent" links. They don't expire by default, though users/apps can explicitly revoke them or set an expiration.
  • Just to be clear, I've sent this feature request along, but I can't promise if/when it might be implemented.
