Google App Engine and Java SDK GetTemporaryLink Error
I use Dropbox to save my application's user uploaded files. The upload part is running well. But When I try to get temporary link to my user's (not Dropbox user) files. I can't get the temporary link...

I couldn't get the error message, but based my condition checker code, It is look like output of the client.files().getTemporaryLink is "" (empty string) or null.
BTW, I use Java for my App and Dropbox-core-sdk (Java version)

7 years agoI'm afraid I don't follow. The method would either return a result or raise an exception. Please double check the actual result.
Also, can you share the relevant code and steps to reproduce the issue?

This is my actual code.
public String unduhBerkas(String path)
throws GetTemporaryLinkErrorException, DbxException{
DbxRequestConfig config = DbxRequestConfig.newBuilder("My_App/1.0")
.withHttpRequestor(new GoogleAppEngineRequestor())
.withAutoRetryEnabled(100) // maksimal cobalagi jika gagal membuat request
.build();
DbxClientV2 client = new DbxClientV2(config, ACCESS_TOKEN);
GetTemporaryLinkResult temporaryLink = client.files().getTemporaryLink(path);
this.link = temporaryLink.getLink();
if (this.link.equals("")){
Date date = new Date();
// ambil 4 jam dari sekarang
Date timeLinkExpiresAt = addMinutesToDate(240, date);
SharedLinkSettings sharedLinkSettings = SharedLinkSettings.newBuilder()
.withExpires(timeLinkExpiresAt)
.build();
SharedLinkMetadata sharedLink = client.sharing().createSharedLinkWithSettings(path, sharedLinkSettings);
this.link = sharedLink.getUrl();
// ganti ujung URL dari dl=0 menjadi dl=1 agar bisa didownload
if (this.link.endsWith("0")){
this.link = this.link.substring(0, this.link.length()-1) + "1";
}
}
return link;

I don't see any obvious issues with that. Can you add some logging or connect a debugger to check the actual return value from getTemporaryLink, or any raised exception?- iwansyahp7 years agoExplorer | Level 3
This is the response I got, Another problem I found is response of API is inconsistent for same files (folders), Sometime I got 200, and sometimes 409 HTTPS Status Codes.
This is the screenshot of request timeline.
