How to show progressbar and Cancel file downloading to dropbox server in Saver
I have implemented Dropbox Saver API for uploading file to dropbox server after user logged in. Things are working good but I have some queries listed below.
1) I need to show progress bar how much file's part has been downloaded to dropbox server. How can I show it ?
2) I need Cancel functionality i.e if user want to cancel file uploading then how I can achieve it.
3) How large file size uploading can be done using Saver API ?

1) Per the documentation, you can implement the
progresscallback function, which will occasionally get called with a progress value you can use to update whatever progress UI you want.2) The Saver doesn't currently offer the ability to cancel the operation once it's been started by the user. (In case the concern is using the user's bandwidth, note that the operation doesn't use the user's own network bandwidth, as the operation is performed directly between the Dropbox servers and the supplied URL of the file.)
3) There's no size limit on the Dropbox Saver.
