    The Dropbox API doesn't offer a call to append data to an existing file, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.

    You'll need to upload the full contents of the new version of the file instead.

md22 No, the Dropbox API does not offer a way to make a copy of the pending upload session data like that.

    md22 The Dropbox API is made by the company Dropbox. The Dropbox API does not currently have the functionality requested here, but I've sent this along to the relevant team in the company as a feature request. I can't promise if/when that functionality would be implemented and released, but I'll follow up here if/when I have any news on that.
