I've used similar code and it works for small size files, however it does not work for big size files (over 30MB) I got the following exception System.Threading.Tasks.TaskCanceledException still do not know why.

Dropbox Community ModeratorOctavio1 How long does that call take before failing with TaskCanceledException? I believe TaskCanceledException should indicate a timeout on the network connection for the API call.
It takes around 100 seconds to throw the exception, Im thinking in implementing a "session" to upload the file trough several small requests besause in the future I might need to upload larger files.
Still do not know how to implement it.
Thanks for the response, hope this can help anyone with the same issue.
- Greg-DBThanks! It does sound like the connection is timing out then. You should generally be able to upload 30 MB in a single call, but this will depend on various factors, such as your network connection.
Using upload sessions instead is the best solution. There's an example of using it here:

I used it with 1024KB chunks and it is woking properly. :slight_smile:

I'll give it a try to the sample you sent and provide my experience to the comunity.
Thanks! :nerd:
