Re: Google App Engine and Java SDK GetTemporaryLink Error

Does this app have full Dropbox access, or is it within an App Folder?

 

It's possible the path you are providing in code is invalid. For example, if you're app is hosted in an app folder, it will show up as:

/Apps/App Name

When viewing it via the web or desktop UI. However, within the application, and for all calls to the API, the /Apps/App Name folder is actually the root "/" folder.

A common error is to provide the "full" path to a file when calling against an app folder-based application:

client.files().getTemporaryLink("/Apps/App Name/Folder/file.name");

 

rather than just providing the path information from the application root folder:

 

client.files().getTemporaryLink("/Folder/file.name");

You posted a code sample showing the method, and it takes a 'path' argument. Can you verify if your application is App Folder-based, and if so, verify that the path information being passed in is correct?

 

Thanks!
