Dropbox.Api.RetryException
My app is integrated with Dropbox. We send files to customer accounts. It works most of the time, but recently, I get Dropbox.Api.RetryException in the response and cannot find docs for that anywhere. I have compared the calls where I get that and ones where I do not and cannot find meaningful differences in the calls. What does RetryException mean?

Hi Jim, Dropbox.Api.RetryException indicates a response from the API that you should handle by retrying the request. This can be caused by a few different things, such as explicit rate limiting, or transient issues on our side.
Also, apologies it isn't properly included in the documentation! We'll look into that and get it fixed up.

Edit: We've got RetryException properly showing in the documentation now.
