@"Hawkeye00" To use the Dropbox Embedder, make sure you've registered the domain(s) of your site(s) where you want to use it. You can find more information in the Dropbox Embedder documentation. You can register your "Chooser / Saver / Embedder domains" from your app's page on the App Console.

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…

I'm closing this as a duplicate in favor of your existing thread.

@"AmanSingh" Yes, as Здравко mentioned, please share the relevant code. It would be useful if you show both where/how you're get the revision value, as well as where/how you're using it. It may also be helpful for troubleshooting purposes to print out the value itself.

The Dropbox API doesn't expose a way to list or count the changes in a specific date range, but I'm filing this as a feature request internally. As with the other thread though, I can't promise if or when this might be implemented. This forum thread serves as your request. (You don't need to upvote it elsewhere.) Thanks!

For Android apps using the official Dropbox API v2 Java SDK, you should upgrade to the latest version of the SDK (currently v5.4.4) and use the updated authorization functionality, starting with the startOAuth2PKCE method. You can find an example app here. For instance, you can see where that starts in the code here and…

There's a help center article "Move files between two Dropbox accounts" here that should be helpful for information on doing this manually. To use the same sharing functionality via the API, e.g., to automate this, you can use the sharing endpoints. Also, check out our developer Sharing Guide (specifically, the "Shared…

You can find more information on handling this migration in the blog post. (Please also make sure that the email address on the Dropbox account that owns your API app is valid and can receive email, as that's where we send advanced notice of changes like this.) In short though, if your app only requires short-term access…

Can you share the relevant code so we can take a look? Be sure to redact any access/refresh tokens though. Thanks in advance!

Dropbox is switching to 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 "refresh token" that can be used to…

@"swively" No, unfortunately I don't have any updated guidance/documentation on that.

This should be working properly again now. Please let us know if you're still seeing any issues. Thanks!

@"Ekaterina-T" Thanks for the feedback!

@"hb-dev" No, unfortunately there's no news on this request.

We don't have any specific resources or samples for Xamarin in particular unfortunately. I'll pass this along as a feature request but I can't promise if or when that might be implemented. The authorization flow is covered in the OAuth Guide and authorization documentation though. If something in the Dropbox API/OAuth flow…

@"sanchitcop19" Thanks for the note! I'll ask the team to clarify this in the UI there.

Dropbox does not support processing the OAuth app authorization flow in a web view. The OAuth app authorization flow should be processed in the user's system browser. See here for more information: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#oauth2-authorize

That looks like a valid long-lived access token. Can you double check that this is the exact string being used? Can you share the rest of the relevant code where this is used for reference? By the way, note that access tokens enable access to Dropbox accounts, so for the sake of security, you should never share access…

@"benfsmith" While the Dropbox API does offer the ability to programmatically create (temporary) direct links, the documentation notes "This URL should not be used to display content directly in the browser.". I can't speak to whether or not this would happen to work for your use case in practice, but Dropbox doesn't…

Thanks for the feedback! I'll share this with the team.

@"M Anwar Bajwa" A refresh token is not something Dropbox support staff can provide for you. This process is supposed to be built in to the third party app itself. You should reach out to the developer of the third party app you're using for any help with that app.

@"pablorgz" Dropbox is migrating to issuing only short-lived access tokens (and optional refresh tokens) instead of long-lived access tokens. You can find more information here. Can you clarify what you mean when you say "This dont work now"? For example, please share: * the name and version number of the platform and…

[Cross-linking for reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70837899/dropbox-login-username-and-password-filds-hidden-xamarin-native ] Please note that the official Dropbox API v2 .NET SDK does not officially support Xamarin. Given that, and the version number you mentioned, it sounds like you're referring to the…

I see that you're getting the error "The given OAuth 2 access token is malformed". This error message should indicate that the access token being provided by the client (generally supplied as a "Bearer" value in the "Authorization" header of the HTTPS request sent by the third party app) is not of a valid Dropbox access…

Thanks for the detailed report! I'm raising this with the team. I'll follow up here once I have an update on this.

@"Ridvan_" You originally posted this in a thread where this issue seemed to be related to the use of a proxy. It sounds like that's not relevant in your case though, so I've split your post to its own thread. Anyway, I see you're getting an ETIMEDOUT error from the fetch network client. An ETIMEDOUT error like this should…

Thanks for following up. I'm glad to hear you got this working. I just wanted to report that we've fixed the SwiftyDropbox documentation.

Thanks for clarifying. In that case, please have the developer contact us directly if they need help implementing this. The specifics will depend on their existing code, platform, language, etc. They can contact us privately here if they prefer.

It sounds like you're referring to the "access token". You can get a new access token by processing the app authorization flow again. Doing so would produce a new access token, though I can't guarantee if it would or wouldn't also start with a "-". You should initiate the app authorization flow however you did originally.…

To clarify, are you the programmer or an end-user of the app in question? If you are not the programmer of the app, you'll need to reach out to them for help. For reference, the "offline" flow itself works, but it is something that would need to be implemented by the programmer of the app. In any case, the creation of new…
