Hi, everyone! I'm trying to append Dropbox file selector to my company's desktop app. Is it possible? Thank you!

7 years agoThanks for the clarification Victor - much appreciated!
I believe you're referring to our 'Chooser' as found in the following link:
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/chooser
I've also moved your post under the relevant section of our Community so the right people get on it and help further with your inquiry.
Let me know if you need anything else in the meantime!

7 years agovick86spb Dropbox does offer an API you can use for programmatically listing, uploading, and downloading Dropbox files and Paper documents, among other operations. You can find everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation, tutorials, and SDKs here:

For the use case you describe, the Dropbox Chooser probably wouldn't be sufficient, so you'd likely want to use the Dropbox API.
For iOS and macOS in particular, we offer both Objective-C and Swift SDKs:
