So far it did not happen to me on the documentation page, curiously it also did not happen in my code so far while using share link to the file but happens when using share link to a folder.
Here is a basic demonstration of the code that has this problem in my testing environment on stackblitz but unfortunately I could not figure out how to enable connecting to dropbox from there even with adding the domain to the app console.

1 year agoHi Standa Fy,
Your app does not appear to be saving the App key that is entered in the app-key field.
You can confirm in the Network tab of the Developer Console that, even though the call to /dropins/embed is successful (200), the value of the app_key parameter is set to undefined.

Well this is embarrassing, sorry. In my haste I forgot to properly adapt the sample code. It is now fixed on the same address. Simply click load script after setting the app key.

Hi Standa Fy,
Could you also confirm that you have added the respective domain(s) for the app you are using in the app's "Chooser / Saver / Embedder domains" field, from within the App Console?

Hi Standa Fy,
Just wanted to provide you with an update.
After thorough testing, we were able to replicate the issue have described. However, it appears that the problem is isolated to the Chrome browser.
During our tests, we found that the issue could not be reproduced in other browsers, such as Safari and Firefox, where everything functioned as expected. This suggests that the issue is likely specific to Chrome.
