I see you're getting an error "The operation couldn’t be completed. Protocol error". This is not actually an error from Dropbox itself, so unfortunately we can't offer much insight on that. It looks like it may be an issue with your network connection/stack, so you may need to refer to the support resources for the platform you're using.

    It's not clear from this code what the issue may be. It seems like it may be a problem with the platform or network client itself.
