Hi Steve

Apologies for late reply, somehow I missed the mail from this thread.

Please find the inline comments

  1. What programming language are you using? -- Java
  2. Are you using an OAuth or Dropbox library? If so, which one? -- Oauth library(Apache Oltu)
  3. What does GetProperties.getDropBoxMedURI() return? (It returns url - https://api.dropbox.com/1/media/auto/)
  4. What's the exact value of fileName (both in the successful and unsuccessful calls)? (Filename is already given Second word must start with 'H' try capital letter as mentioned in the above comment)
  5. What is the code for OAuthBearerClientRequest , including its buildQueryMessage method? (Perhaps that's from a library?) (same apache oltu)

Please let me know in case you need more information.

Thanks
