The Dropbox API doesn't offer a call to append data to an existing file, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
You'll need to upload the full contents of the new version of the file instead.- kmeriExplorer | Level 3
i hope Dropbox will do it,
but some file not need the full content,
Sample
SQlite database file not need the version,
i will explain
i wish to put teh database file on the dropbox then i can connect from my computer using API to addd records , or retrieve some data
because the version of Sqlite in my pc , so the dropbox will just still as cloud file storage.
I think it could work on Dropbox but i need the connection path on the my acccount dropbox.
