We looked over this again, and there certainly seems to be something unusual going on, but unfortunately we won't be able to investigate without reproducing it. Do you know if there's anything unusual about your app's configuration? The best thing to help here would be if you could reproduce this in a sample project you…

Thanks! We'll take a look.

Thanks! Unfortunately without being able to reproduce this we're not going to be able to fix it. Luckily it's only happening on the simulator (and may in fact be due to or related to the simulator itself) so we don't have to worry about this in the wild, as far as we can tell. If you do see this elsewhere or have more…

Do you know if you were doing anything in particular in that simulator when this started? Also, have you tried resetting the simulator and seeing if the problem still reproduces? This runs the risk of losing the ability to trigger this of course, but as this can't seem to be reproduced on device or other simulators, it may…

Thanks for confirming those. If you can reproduce this in a simple project that you can share with us so we can reproduce it here that would be very helpful.

Thanks for the additional information! I can't seem to reproduce this here though. Can you make sure you're on the latest version of the SDK (currently 3.1.2): https://www.dropbox.com/developers/sync/sdks/ios In addition, make sure you're on the latest version of Xcode (currently 6.1.1). Also, do the provided sample apps…

Can you post the full stack trace/any output?

If you're using the Dropbox API, you can get a link to a file using /shares: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/docs#shares This returns the same kind of link as the feature on the web site: https://www.dropbox.com/help/167 In either case, note that these links point to a preview page for the file by default, but you…

The Java Core SDK doesn't currently expose mime type, but I'll be sure to pass this along as feedback. You can keep your own file extension to mime type mapping if you'd like though. For example, you can find our groupings for the file types permission here:…

In that case, a screencast or a set of screenshots showing the Dropbox app authorization flow and Dropbox API integration in your app will suffice.

[Cross-linking for reference: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28147032/keep-dropbox-authentication-in-memory-for-futur-use-ios ] Whether or not the Dropbox app is installed shouldn't affect how the access token is stored. In either case, when the user finishes the app authorization flow, the Dropbox SDK stores the…

If you're using the official Dropbox PHP Core SDK, you can upload files using the uploadFile method: https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-php/api-docs/v1.1.x/class-Dropbox.Client.html#_uploadFile This method (as well as the chunked upload versions) upload one file at a time, so in order to upload multiple files you'd need…

If you want to use the Dropbox API from Android, we recommend using the official Dropbox Android Core SDK: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/sdks/android There's a tutorial here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/start/android The full documentation can be found here:…

You don't actually need to "refresh" the access token. Dropbox API access tokens don't expire, so just be careful not to manually revoke it.

This is technically possible, but I must emphasize again that this is very much not recommended. As such, we don't have much in the way of resources or support for it. That said, there is some more information here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27834922/auto-login-dropbox-account-on-core-api-without-login-prompt

Hi Dawid, unfortunately the Sync SDK has been deprecated and will not be receiving further updates. You can find more information in the announcement here: https://blogs.dropbox.com/developers/2015/04/deprecating-the-sync-and-datastore-apis/

Unfortunately I don't have any update on this right now. Apologies I can't be of more help!

I don't have any workaround to offer right now.

Unfortunately, the Sync SDK doesn't currently support 64-bit architectures, but I'm sending this along as a feature request. Sorry I can't be of more help!

This issue was resolved. If you're seeing errors, please open a ticket with the details so we can look into it: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/contact

So we can look into this specifically, please open an API ticket with the app key or name, user IDs for the affected accounts, and some sample requests/responses, including cursors, but redacting access tokens: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/contact Thanks in advance!

That certainly would be possible, using either the Core API or Chooser. If you want a more automatic flow, you can use the Core API . First, you'd need to register an app. You can find information on the different permissions here. For this, the app folder permission would likely be sufficient, unless you want the user to…

Unfortunately there isn't another way to handle this, but I'll be sure to pass this along as feedback. 

The "Failed to grab locks for" message indicates a technical inability to make the state modification in the account at the time of the API call. This error generally indicates that there was simultaneous activity in the account preventing your app from making the state-modifying call (e.g., adding, copying, or removing…

Thanks for clarifying. Unfortunately, there isn't currently a way to convert the host ID to a user ID, but I'll be sure to pass this along as feedback.

That's correct, reading a file will always give you any cached content first, not blocking on the download of new content (unless there is no cached copy), so you should use an observer to know when the new content is available and update to it. You can find more information here:…
