bspindia Importing the dropins.js script is required for both ways of using the Embedder (that is, via anchor tags or via JavaScript). Make sure you set it up as shown in the documentation.

    bspindia Using Dropbox.embed is currently working for me. As Здравко noted, I see the latest code you shared is not the same as you originally shared though. So, can you confirm what error you are currently getting? If you're still seeing an issue, it would be useful if you share the exact code and steps you're using that reproduce the issue, as well as the full/exact error you're getting.
