Thanks Greg ! the reply for the api ticket resolved my issue.
The mailbox in question had 300 GB of data.
We were downloading the data using Dropbox for Business Api.
It went fine downloading entire day. however, next day while downloading we started getting errors.

An error occurred while sending the request."
Did we cross api limits or was our IP blocked.

Gagan

7 years agoIf you hit the Dropbox API rate limits, you'll get a response with an explicit error message; we don't just block by IP address.
The error message you shared isn't coming from Dropbox itself. It sounds like you are unable to reach the Dropbox API servers for some reason. Is there anything on your network connection, e.g., proxy, firewall, or other security software, that may be interfering with connections to *.dropboxapi.com or *.dropbox.com?
