How to create a folder via PowerShell with Dropbox REST API?

Good morning.   I have been looking for a way to create a folder via PowerShell in Dropbox with REST API and I have not found a way to do it. I only found the forum http://rest-examples.chilkat.io/...

It's not clear why it would be claiming a dependency loop on Dropbox.Api; Dropbox.Api only depends on Newtonsoft.Json (>= 13.0.2), which does not depend on Dropbox.Api.

 

It looks like there's some information on this issue here; otherwise you may want to reach out to Microsoft for support for the installer.

Many thanks Greg-DB for the answer.

It worked for me using the command:

Install-Package Dropbox.Api -Destination ".\NugetPackages" -Force -Source 'https://www.nuget.org/api/v2' -ProviderName NuGet -SkipDependencies -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
