Hi,
I am trying to migrate from v1 to v2. No luck sofar. And I do not get the example code to work.
I tried the android axample but it fails on gradle build. So no way tot test pieces of code.
Trying the turorial (in androidstudio):
https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-java#dropbox-for-java-tutorial
I run into errors as well. Here:
FullAccount account = client.users().getCurrentAccount();
I am desperate! Does anyone have a working Simple example to connect to dropbox and upload a file with android studio?
thanks a lot!!
