Can you help me in this . ...Following your question at all, seems you are trying guess what you need to pass instead of read the documentation. In the documentation you can read type and formatting of all possible parameters, including mandatory parameter 'path' that describe 'place' where uploaded file will reside. Just read it. Can be useful to take a look on API Explorer for easier call prototyping. Finally the file content is passed as call body, not as a link or something like. If you want to pass file as a link take a look here.
Good luck.
- Thank you for you valuable inputs .
Now File is getting uploaded but its content is currupted , i tried base 64 encode , and utf-8 encode .My file is in UTF -8 encoded.
May i know Which file format i have to send data to dropbox .Dropbox can support many different formarts and actually doesn't "support" anything. Tha data are transfered and store as just a bunch of bytes 😉 (i.e. whatever you are uploading, the same you will get). Most probably you have uploaded something different or not exactly the intended. Check it - try inspect what exactly you are uploading (on HTTP level) and see where is your error (befor or after that).
