Eroor 400 when using the Dropbox choose API

    We do not currently include the MIME type in the response from metadata returned by the Chooser.  I have filed this as a feature request for the Chooser.

    In cases where the returned file name includes a file extension, is it possible to infer the MIME type from the file extension?

Greg,

Here is the URL 

https://www.dropbox.com/chooser?origin=https%3A%2F%2Fd0aapangw01.hrpsdev.local%3A44303&app_key=vpukracbjh1dbac&link_type=&trigger=js&multiselect=false&extensions=&folderselect=false&iframe=false&version=2

One more thing, currently I have embedded the code from the below link locally onto my application(Is it ok to do that?). We wouldn't be using HTML to embed the script. 

https://www.dropbox.com/static/api/2/dropins.js

 Hence is there any other way to pass the app key.
