No, it is not possible to get a refresh token by using an expired short-lived access token. You can only get a refresh token by processing the OAuth app authorization flow and requesting "offline" access. This only needs to be done once per account though, as the refresh token itself does not expire and can be re-used…

An OAuth 2 redirect URI is a URI that the developer wants the user sent back to after authorizing the app, however this is optional. You do not need to use a redirect URI if you can't or don't want to. When you don't use a redirect URI, the authorization code is instead present in the UI directly to be copied/pasted back…

Dropbox is no longer offering the option for creating new long-lived access tokens. Dropbox is now issuing short-lived access tokens (and optional refresh tokens) instead of long-lived access tokens. You can find more information on this migration here. Apps can still get long-term access by requesting "offline" access…

@"ozbcoz" Thanks, that's helpful. When updating the scopes for your app, instead of then switching to another tab such as "Branding" and clicking "Save changes" there, please stay on the "Permissions" tab and click on the "Submit" button in the bar at the bottom of that page. There's currently an issue that makes that…

@"ozbcoz" Thanks! You can use a Dropbox shared link to share the video file. (By the way, feel free to open an API ticket here with it instead if you'd prefer to share privately for whatever reason.)

@"ozbcoz" Would you be able to share a short recording showing the issue you're seeing? I just tried this myself with the latest version of Firefox, and while the display of the buttons is currently broken making them hard to see, clicking the buttons does still work for me. Thanks in advance!

@"BartLors" As Здравко noted, the Dropbox Saver is way for end-users to save files to their own accounts, not a way for end-users to upload files to your account. I'll pass this along as a feature request for a component like that, I can't promise if or when that might be implemented. (And for reference, using the Dropbox…

You can find the release history for SwiftyDropbox here. There is a "Fixes for use in application extensions" in the latest release, v9.2.0, which might be relevant. Please try updating to that. If something still isn't working as expected with that, please share the specific steps/code to reproduce the issue so we can…

@"Tshaniii" Yes, as Samuel-088 said, you can use the Dropbox SDK to download a file, and then you can use that downloaded file data however you need. For reference, to download a file using the Dropbox JavaScript SDK in Node, you would use the filesDownload method.

@"bobbotron" I don't have news or a timeline on this right now. I'll follow up here once I have any updates.

The Dropbox Embedder doesn't offer an option for that, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

@"athithan" We've deployed an update with support for "Dropbox-API-Select-Admin" on /2/sharing/list_file_members/continue. Give that a try and let me know if that works for you.

I can't offer help with React itself, as that's not made by Dropbox, so I suggest referring to the React documentation/support resources for help with that.

Thanks for clarifying. It sounds like the issue is more around how async/await itself works in JavaScript. I can only really help with the Dropbox API/SDK in particular, so I recommend referring to a guide/documentation for async/await in JavaScript. That said, it seems like "await response.result.entries" may not be what…

For information on how apps can use the OAuth app authorization flow to have end-users authorize an app to access their accounts, please read the OAuth Guide. To see how to use the JavaScript SDK for this, check out the examples included with the SDK.

If you're using Node.js and need to interact with the Dropbox API, we recommend using the official Dropbox API v2 JavaScript SDK, which supports Node.js. You can find sample code for that here. Note though that you should not be sharing access tokens with other users. The API was designed with the intention that each user…

As you found, starting from files_list_folder(path='') will only list the contents of that particular member's folder; if there are other team folders that the member doesn't have mounted in their account, those team folders won't be found that way. You can list all team folders for a team using…

@"johnvu93" The Dropbox API doesn't offer a way to copy a folder from a shared link into a connected Dropbox account via the API like the "Copy to Dropbox" feature of the shared link page, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if/when that might be implemented though. (The Dropbox API does offer…

Please clarify what you mean when you say "it doesn't work". For example, what unexpected error or output do you get from the API? From what you shared though, note that you need to implement filesListFolderContinue in addition to filesListFolder as documented to make sure you get all entries. You're not guaranteed to get…

To make sure I completely understand your post, can you share a sample request/response showing the call that isn't working the way you want? Be sure to redact your access token. If you'd prefer to share privately, you can open an API ticket here. Thanks!

@"athithan" To be clear, I can't promise if/when this would be updated accordingly, but I'll follow up here if I do get any news on this to share.

Thanks for the report. I'll ask the team to look into this.

Thanks for sharing this! I'll bring this up with the team to see if we can change that.

The sample you provided is working in Google Chrome on macOS for me. If something still isn't working for you, please share the exact steps to reproduce the issue, and the full error or unexpected output you're getting so we can look into it.

Currently, app folders are incompatible with shared/team folders, meaning you can't share an app folder, put a shared/team folder inside an app folder or put an app folder in a shared/team folder. (Though you can share app folders using shared links though, as you found.) Instead, if you need to use the API with…

@"gzowner" The issue we resolved earlier today wasn't specific to particular file types only, so you may be running in to something different. Can you share the steps to reproduce the issue, as well as a sample request/response that isn't working as expected for you so we can look into it? Be sure to redact your access…

I just tried this and it is working for me in Chrome. Are you still seeing an issue now? If so, please share a sample failing request/response so we can look into it. Thanks!

This should be fixed now. Please let us know if you're still seeing any issues.
