Thanks for the report! We're looking into it.

Thanks! That's helpful. We're looking into it.

Hi Vic, we'll be happy to help with this. Can you share a sample request and response showing the unexpected error? (Just be sure to redact any secret values like the access token or app secret.) Thanks in advance!

Are behind a proxy server or firewall, etc. that may be interfering or failing occasionally by any chance? In any case, transient server/network issues like this can occur, so you should have your app automatically retry a few times on failures like this.

As a first step, I recommend running the SimpleBlogDemo sample app and looking through how that works. For example, HomeController.cs shows how to use these methods to set up and process the OAuth app authorization flow.

Are referring to using the user-linked Dropbox API (for the single linked user), or the team-linked Dropbox Business API (for any particular member of the team)? The Dropbox API doesn't allow you to change the email address of a user's account, but a Dropbox Business app can be used to change the email address on a team…

I think you may be referring to some new logging in Xcode 8 itself. I found some information and a solution at the following links: https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/50138 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37800790/hide-strange-unwanted-xcode-8-logs Otherwise, can you share some of the logging messages that…

Thanks for following up Tamas. I'm glad to hear this is working for you now. I'm not aware of any plans to disable CORS for dl.dropboxusercontent.com.

Yes, that's the official .NET SDK. What's the actual error you're getting on the backend of the sample app?

Hi Namit, can you share the code that's giving you trouble? Thanks in advance!

Quick update: the API does now have support for batch copies: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-copy_batch

It sounds like there may be a bug in your uploading logic. It's ****** to say what it may be offhand, so I recommend adding some logging to your upload code to see where the issue may be and determine where the incorrect data is being sent up, or if you're sending the data out of order or something. Have you tried…

CORS requests should work on dl.dropboxusercontent.com. I just tried it and it is working for me. Can you share some code that's not working for you?

Are you using our official .NET SDK? We recommend doing so. It comes with a SimpleBlogDemo example app that shows how to use DropboxOAuth2Helper to process the app authorization flow. Each user will get their own access token once they go through the app authorization flow. An access token identifies a particular app-user…

FFos, your question doesn't seem related to this thread, so please start a new thread where we can help you individually: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/forums/postpage/board-id/101000014

Users don't need to be developers to get an access token for your app. What SDK/library are you using, if any? How you set this up depends on what you're using.

Yes, using the OAuth app authorization flow, your app can have each user connect their own Dropbox account. The OAuth guide here may be helpful: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/oauth-guide If you're using an official SDK, the tutorial/documentation will have information on implementing the OAuth app…

The API currently only offers the ability to restore specific files, and not entire folders, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.

No, it's not possible to re-validate an access token that has been revoked. I'll pass this along as a feature request, though there may be security concerns here, so I definitely can't promise if or when this would be implemented.

For anyone looking for the answer to this question, please refer to the new thread for it: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-support/Is-there-anyway-to-revalidate-an-invalid-token-instead-of/m-p/171540

Hi Vang, if you're migrating an existing app, or starting a new app, we recommend using one of the official SDKs for API v2: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation They don't offer quite the same functionality as the deprecated Sync API though, but they do offer more control over the API calls you can make. So,…

Hi Rodolphe, I'm glad to hear this is working for you again. We are not making DNS changes on our side for the API v1 deprecation/retirement. When API v1 is retired, it will respond to any further requests with a 400 error.

HI Matt, there's nothing additional you need to do beyond setting include_media_info parameter as you mentioned. Unfortunately, not all files/file types will yield media information though. I'll pass this along as a feature request for support for more types though.

1) On API v2, it's effectively the same, but you supply the rev value to DBFILESWriteMode -initWithUpdate: and pass that write mode to the upload call. 2) The structure is a bit different, but yes, DBFilesRoutes contains all of the file API call routes, i.e., all of the API calls you can make for the "files" namespace.…

Hi Keith, the migration guide you linked to is the only transition document we have, but I'll send this along as a request for more SDK-specific ones. (The method names are derived from the endpoint names though, so it may still be of some use mapping the methods to each other. To answer your specific questions, yes,…

Hi Robert, you can find the full documentation here: https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-obj-c/api-docs/latest/

Hi Matt, yes, we'll be keeping this for API v2.
