Quick update here, the email now includes the app name, so this should be less confusing for users. Hope this helps!

That version of the SDK does use API v2, so it sounds like it is just users with an old version of your app. One exception for the Java SDK in particular though is that it does still contain API v1 functionality (for now) to ease the migration. Just make sure you're not using DbxClientV1 anywhere in your latest code.

Hi Jan, I believe this is supposed to already work. The SDK contains PCL with profile111 which is compatible with .NET Standard 1.1 and above. Can you share the steps you followed to reproduce this, and the full error/output you're getting? Thanks in advance!

For these calls with the parameters in the header, you need to escape these characters. That is, when you use the “Dropbox-API-Arg” header, you need to make it “HTTP header safe”. This means using JSON-style “\uXXXX” escape codes for the character 0x7F and all non-ASCII characters. Some, but not all, languages/libraries do…

The latest release is actually 3.1.0, not 3.0.15. Please update to that, as there have been some fixes that may be relevant here. (Also, are you sure you updated to 3.0.15? The 'response' method was renamed to 'setResponseBlock' in 3.0.0.) If the issue persists with 3.1.0, we can look into this with you. To clarify though,…

I'm not sure I follow. If you call getCurrentAccount you can get Account.profilePhotoUrl which is a URL to the profile picture. If that's not what you're looking for, can you elaborate?

Thanks for the post! Unfortunately, it's not possible to use the Chooser via an OAuth API authorization like this, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.

Even if you've already migrated your app to API v2, it's possible you got the email if some users are still using old versions of your app. Exactly how you check what version you're using depends on what SDK, if any you're using. Are you using one of the official SDKs? If so, which one and what version number?

Thanks for the feedback @"tim". I'll bring this up with the team again. By the way, we are now reviewing requests for extensions to API v1 access. If you'd like an extension for access to API v1, please open an API ticket and include: - The app key(s) for the app(s) you need an extension for. - The reason(s) for the…

Thanks for the feedback @"srini". We'll review your extension request and follow up with you on your ticket.

Thanks for the post. The expected behavior when uploading via the API to an account when the account is out of space is an error response from the API, that the app can handle as desired (e.g., to surface an error message to the user, and retry later, etc.) For API v1, the error response for this case has a 507 status…

The API doesn't offer a way to programmatically create accounts, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request. (The only exception is for Dropbox Business API apps, which can create accounts in the process of adding members to teams, but that only applies to Business teams.)

Yes, you can use cursors from v1's delta with v2's listFolderContinue and listFolderLongpoll to pick up where you left off.

This can also occur if there are network changes or issues, preventing our servers from reaching yours. That can be transient though, so can you try again? I.e., make a change in a linked account to see if it goes through now. If you're still seeing this, please open a ticket so we can investigate specifically:…

Thanks! It looks like you're using a sample we originally posted on the forum here. Thanks to your post, we found an issue with it that would cause it to fail for very large files, due to the use of smaller int types. We've posted an updated version that uses bigger types here:…

Thanks for the additional feedback!

Yes, we dropped support for iOS 8 support in v3.0.12. We had to do so to support some changes to the authorization flow. There's more information in the release log.

Can you share the code you're using that reproduces this issue? Thanks in advance!

I believe that's referring to things like proxies, firewalls, etc., which may interfere with connections like this. If your users are likely to be in more restrictive environments like this, you may want to not use that in your app, or user different parameters, etc. For reference, the API itself supports a longpoll…

Unlike OAuth 2 access tokens, OAuth 1 access tokens are comprised of two different pieces, a key and a secret. (So, to sign an API call with an OAuth 1 access token, you needed four different pieces: the app key, the app secret, the OAuth 1 access token key, and the OAuth 1 access token secret.) There's an example of the…

Unfortunately there isn't a good solution here. We'll consider it a feature request. Right now, you'd either have to occasionally poll the user endpoints as you mentioned, or for Business apps, monitor /1/team/log/get_events or /2/team_log/get_events.

Yes, you can control how this works by using the "mode" parameter when uploading files. That mode value should be a WriteMode. One of the write modes is "overwrite", though "update" is reccomended, as it's safer. With "overwrite" it's easy to accidentally/unintentionally overwrite new changes you didn't mean to.

[Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44109508/how-to-edit-the-file-in-swiftydropbox ] Yes, you can edit files of any type, including text files, by uploading the new file data. You can find an example of making an upload call in the documentation for SwiftyDropbox here:…

@"wei-qiang" We'll be happy to help with whatever issues you're having with the Dropbox API. Please feel free to open a new thread with the relevant code and the full error/output you're getting: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/forums/postpage/board-id/101000014

Thanks for the feedback!

Yes, you can try making an API call and check if it fails with a 401 invalid access token error. Getting the user's account information is a good call to use for this, since it doesn't have side effects. For example, with the .NET SDK, you can call GetCurrentAccountAsync, and catch/check the AuthError.

1. This is subject to change, so don't rely on this number, but it's generally 1000-2000 files. 2. Yes, even when has_more=false, it's best to store the returned cursor returned by /2/files/list_folder. You can then call /2/files/list_folder/continue later once changes do occur, in order to get information on what (and…

Thanks! I'm glad to hear you got that working. I'll still have engineering investigate this to figure out what's causing that though.
