That's correct, no change on this for file requests. Steve, depending on your use case though, using the Dropbox API to upload directly may work for you: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-upload

Unfortunately, no, there currently isn't an API for uploading to a file request, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.

Thanks for the feedback! It's much appreciated, and feedback like this helps us decide how to prioritize our product direction. I can't speak much to why one feature or another was or wasn't implemented (in this case support for the file type permission on the new API v2), but I'm sending this along to the team as a…

Thanks! I'll send this along as a request.

Hi Michael, API v2 doesn't support the file type permission, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request. (It sounds like some of the functionality was working, but it isn't officially supported unfortunately.) To use API v2, you'll need to register an app with a different permission:…

I've sent this along as a request, but I can't promise if or when it may be implemented.

[Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34185754/is-there-a-way-to-add-a-new-file-format-association-in-dropbox ] Do you mean you'd like a way to have the Dropbox clients (e.g., web, desktop, and mobile) recommend/link to your app when users browse to a file of a particular type? This isn't…

It also works for POST. (And API v2 doesn't use PUT.)

Thanks for the feedback! I'll send it along to the team. One alternative that may help is using the "arg" query parameter as mentioned in the documentation: "Content-style endpoints These endpoints accept or return file content, so their arguments are instead passed as JSON in the Dropbox-Api-Arg request header, and…

The API doesn't currently offer a way to programmatically unlink users/teams, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request. This can be done manually by users though. Users can unlink apps via: https://www.dropbox.com/account/security Team admins can unlink team apps via:…

This has been added to /users/get_current_account as email_verified.

API v2 doesn't currently expose this, beyond the sharing errors you mentioned, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request. 

This should be fixed now with version 4.2.5 of the official Dropbox iOS app.

Thanks for the reports! We're aware of and working on this issue.

Hi Nicole, we came across this looking into this for you: https://community.oracle.com/thread/1150553 It looks like you might be including an old or obsolete JAR in your deployment, and classes in that JAR are somehow conflicting with the newer/correct version of the classes. 

Are you referring to the quota information being returned in the account information API call? This should reflect the quota of the account linked to the app, which isn't necessarily the same as the account that created the app itself. If you're seeing incorrect information, can you post a sample request/response? (Just be…

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

This isn't currently available in the API, and unfortunately I don't know if or when it might be, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.

The official Objective-C SDK for API v2 has been released here: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-obj-c

Hi James, unfortunately SwiftyDropbox doesn't support being used in Objective-C projects yet, but it is something we're planning on. I don't have a timeline to offer right now though.

Yes, you can use the /files/move endpoint to move or rename a file or folder.

I'm not sure I understand your question. Can you clarify? Thanks in advance! Also, again (per your previous thread) note that you can't use an "access_token" URL parameter to pass up your access token to API v2. You can only use an "Authorization" header or an "authorization" URL parameter.

It looks like you'e trying to call the API HTTPS endpoints directly using a third party HTTP client. As we didn't make the client, we can't help with it specifically, but we can try to offer some guidance on how to use the API. For reference, the documentation for PostAsync indicates that the second parameter is: content…

I don't believe iframes support data: URIs as src, so you'd have to host the data at a URL like I mentioned in my last reply. As far as browser support for different file types are concerned, that would depend on the specific file type and browser capabilities, unrelated to Dropbox itself. For example, I don't believe most…

The thumbnails and previews endpoints return the raw data for the thumbnail or preview of the requested file, respectively. You'd need to save that data and serve it back however you want. E.g., serve it at a URL to use as the src for your iframe.

This isn't currently possible, but I'll send this along as a feature request.

Richard's correct, we don't currently offer an FTP interface, but we'll consider this a feature request.

That would certainly be unexpected from the metadata call. Are you making any other API calls around the same time? Also, are you sure this only happens when you're making this metadata call? Is it possible the people with the file are (perhaps not intentionally) saving new versions and causing the conflicts, unrelated to…
