I see, thanks for the information. In that case, you should register the redirect URI without the port. I'll ask the team to clarify this in the documentation.

The Dropbox API does offer the ability to list, upload, and download files, among other operations. We don't have any specifics resources, such as an SDK or documentation, for VBA in particular though. The API v2 HTTPS endpoints can be directly used by any platform that can make HTTPS calls however. For example, to upload…

The Dropbox API content servers are currently be served properly, and I'm currently able to upload more than 32 20MB-chunks, so it might be an issue with your network connection (or ISP). For example, is there something, such as security software like an anti-virus or firewall, or a malfunctioning proxy, that may be…

You can see how the authorization code is exchanged for an access token in the .NET SDK SimpleBlogDemo example here: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/blob/master/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/Examples/SimpleBlogDemo/Controllers/HomeController.cs#L187 The 'code' and 'state' are returned by URL parameters, and after the…

Dropbox doesn't offer a general app listing like that exactly where users can browse API apps, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. (There is a page that highlights some Business apps though. If you think your app would be a good fit for that listing, please contact our business development team.) You can find…

[Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46686582/dropbox-api-chooser-is-not-displaying-the-mobile-version ] Thanks for the report! We'll look into it.

Thanks for the report! I'm not aware of anything that should cause this, so we'll have to investigate. It will be difficult since this doesn't reproduce in a sample app, so to begin, some additional information would be helpful: - what version number of the SDK do you have installed? - what Android version(s) are you…

The Dropbox .NET SDK builds a Uri from the redirectUri string you provide, using the Uri Constructor. The Uri Class canonicalizes URIs, including: "Removes default and empty port numbers." The "443" port is default for SSL/TLS, so it's implied by "https://" and shouldn't be necessary. Can you elaborate on the issues you're…

For Android, we recommend using the official Dropbox API v2 Java SDK: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-java It sounds like you've already installed that. It doesn't use the same classes/interface as the old version, so you'll need to update your code. There's an example Android app using it here:…

I don't believe that's called out specifically in the documentation, but that information from the error message is correct. (It's also shown in the curl examples.)

We've corrected the ordering in v8.3.1 so that developers don't need to update their code when upgrading from 8.2. (If you have already done so though, you will need to revert that change, or, preferably, switch to using named parameters. Apologies for again for the bother.)

This should be working again now. Apologies for the interruption!

The latest version of the SDK is v3.3.3. If you're using 1.1.1, you will see the discrepancies with the current documentation you mentioned. We recommend updating to the latest version. For Cocoapods, you'lld need to run `pod update`. If your Podfile is set to require 1.1.1 (or some other version) specifically, remove the…

Thanks for the report! It looks like there may be a service disruption on our side for webhooks right now. We're looking into it.

@"maki1986" The Dropbox Chooser allows your app to easily request files from users. Once the user selects a file, the Chooser returns a link for that file to your app. If your app used the "direct" link option, it can then directly access that file content, but exactly how you manage that is up to your app.

@"Steve L.26" The batchUploadFiles method isn't a direct API call, but rather a convenience method built to wrap the various upload sessions calls, so it doesn't directly expose the API errors. It instead exposes different error cases via the different values in the overall response block that you mentioned. If you want…

The equivalent of that in the API v2 Objective-C SDK would be getTemporaryLink: https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-obj-c/api-docs/latest/Classes/DBFILESUserAuthRoutes.html#/c:objc(cs)DBFILESUserAuthRoutes(im)getTemporaryLink:

What information exactly are you looking for? You can find the documentation for the HTTP interface here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation The specification for the API can be found here: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-api-spec

@"mrschulz" I'm sorry to hear this caught you unaware. We notified developers by email, but it sounds like those emails unfortunately did not make it to you. If you need more time to migrate your app to API v2, we can offer an extension for access to API v1. To request that, please open an API ticket with the relevant app…

@"ShiminCai" We don't have a migration guide for moving between these SDKs in particular. I recommend just reading through the readme for SwiftyDropbox, which covers the different kinds of calls, to see how each piece should be implemented.

@"philipkd" The version of the API used to create files/folders does not somehow taint those files/folders. Are you sure these users are looking in the right folders, and the right accounts? If you can reproduce any API calls yielding unexpected results, please share the details and we'll be happy to look into it.

The 'id' can be used with various endpoints, in place of the file path. In many cases, you can just pass in the 'id' string in the 'path' parameter. For example, you can pass the 'id' as the 'path' value when calling /2/files/get_metadata. That's an easy way to check if a file or folder exists. The…

@"Clifton L." Are you still seeing "Logbook.db" returned now when searching "Logbook.pilotpro"?

@"suzuka" If you have the metadata for a file or folder, e.g., as returned by /2/files/get_metadata, that will include a path_lower, like: "/homework/math/prime_numbers.txt" You can parse the path to get the parent folder, e.g., in this example: "/homework/math" You can then use /2/files/get_metadata again with that path…

@"correotorrent" It sounds like you're getting this error because we retired API v1 recently. I would need to see the actual error response you're getting to confirm that though. For reference, if that is the issue, as announced last year, API v1 has been retired. You can find more information in the blog post here:…

When making an API call like this, the 'path' value you supply should be the file path and name where you want to upload the file. In your case, you're just supplying "/Apps", so that's what the file will be saved as. You should instead supply something like "/myfolder/originalfilename.sav". That is, include the name and…

@"brian q." The /2/files/upload_session/finish endpoint should already be returning full FileMetadata objects, per the documentation. That includes both the path_lower and id for the uploaded file. Is that not what you're getting? If not, please share a full sample request/response so we can take a look. (Just redact the…

I'm glad to hear you sorted this out already. Yes, you can directly access those fields like that, no regex necessary. For anyone else looking for this, here's that sample cleaned up: import dropbox dbx = dropbox.Dropbox("<ACCESS_TOKEN>") myDir = dbx.files_list_folder("") for item in myDir.entries: if isinstance(item,…

@"SnowJeb" The example should work. Can you share the specific errors you're getting so we can help? Thanks in advance!
