@"Robert S.138" @"Mark R.5" If you’ve already updated your app, this traffic may be coming from users still on an old version of your app. You may want to notify your users to update to the latest version of the app. We don't have a way to simulate the change, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise…

@"Eric Z.6" Thanks for sharing this feedback. At this time I am unfortunately not able to offer extensions for this change, but I’m sending this feedback along to the team. For reference, we did send earlier advance notices about this change by email last year, but it sounds like those did not make it to you. For instance,…

This should be fixed now. Thanks for the report!

That unexpected error message should be fixed now.

Yes, that's correct. The API was designed with the intention that each user would link their own Dropbox account, in order to interact with their own files. While it is technically possible to always connect to just one account for all users, we do not officially support this, for various technical and security reasons.…

[Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71426027/how-can-my-non-product-just-for-my-use-swift-app-write-data-to-a-dropbox-file ] You can use the SwiftyDropbox SDK to integrate with Dropbox, even if your integration is not meant to be a released product. You can find instructions for getting…

I'll be happy to help with any issues you're having with the Dropbox API, but I'll need some more information. Please reply with: * the name and version number of the platform and SDK/library you are using, if any * the steps to reproduce the issue, including relevant code snippet(s), but don't include any access or…

@"justindaw" We're working on some updates that should allow us to avoid that. I should have an official update on this on Friday.

@"lalomores" Just like with long-lived access tokens, the user needs to manually authorize the app once to get the refresh token, which can then be stored and re-used without further manual user interaction. In that example, you can see where the SDK returns the refresh token, which is then set on the client, on this…

@"lalomores" I see you also opened another thread for this. We've followed up with you there.

@"TheWhistler1967" As Здравко mentioned, you can use the API to look up the existing group(s) to get the group ID(s). Then you can use that to build a GroupSelector as needed, like this: dbt = dropbox.DropboxTeam(TOKEN)# just taking the first group as an example:group = dbt.team_groups_list().groups[0]group_selector =…

[Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71393752/get-a-refresh-token-for-dropbox-api-using-rdrop2-and-drop-auth ] As you found, Dropbox is in the process of switching to only issuing short-lived access tokens (and optional refresh tokens) instead of long-lived access tokens. You can find more…

Thanks for the report! We'll look into it and I'll follow up here with any updates.

@"AdnanL" Thanks. That output looks correct and should allow the code to get the "token.result.refresh_token" value. When you say you "did not run the script before I posted this issue", do you mean that when you originally posted this and said you "reached this error that I couldn't solve", that was only a warning you saw…

@"Ridvan_" The Dropbox API doesn't offer the ability to get the Dropbox client sync issues, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

Dropbox does offer an official SDK for Python as well as some sample code for it, in case that helps in your case.

To list the contents of a folder, you should use the /2/files/list_folder and /2/files/list_folder/continue endpoints. For the root folder, you should set the "path" parameter to the empty string "". Note that you're not guaranteed to get all of the results back in a single response, so be sure to implement both of those…

Thanks for the note! I'll ask the team to fix up that text.

For context, Dropbox is in the process of switching to only 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 though, in which case the app receives a…

We can't offer help with "Hikvision DVR" itself, as that's not made by Dropbox. You'll need to refer to the support resources or documentation for that for help with it. If you're getting any unexpected error or output from the Dropbox API itself though, please share that error/output so we can take a look and help.

@"shankar267" Can you elaborate on what you mean when you say you are "not able to connect Power BI Desktop with Dropbox"? What error or unexpected output do you get from the Dropbox API?

@"gm72" As Здравко outlined, you can compare the list of members against the login events to see which members haven't logged in. The API doesn't offer a more direct way of listing members that have never logged in than that, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be…

We can't offer help with the "andrea fabrizi script" itself, as that's not made by Dropbox. You'll need to refer to the support or documentation for that script for help with it. If you're getting any unexpected error or output from the Dropbox API itself though, please share that error/output so we can take a look and…

Unfortunately the Dropbox API doesn't offer a way to look up which account deleted a file like that, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

@"AdnanL" Thanks for following up. Can you indicate what you're getting in the console though? Specifically, the "Token Result" value being logged on line 53 from the code you shared. Please don't show actual full access/refresh token values however.

It looks like that is currently a bug on our side when requesting this configuration, that is, using "files.permanent_delete". We'll look into and I'll follow up with you here once I have an update on that for you.

I see you're getting a 'path/not_file' error, which indicates that the path you're supplying to filesListRevisions is not for a file. The filesListRevisions functionality only supports files, not folders. Make sure you're only passing in file paths when calling filesListRevisions. (The filesListFolder* methods will list…

@"justindaw" Thanks for the additional feedback!

Update: we have extended the timeline and are planning to keep the current behavior until at least 3/14.
