    When uploading a file to Dropbox using the Dropbox API, the resulting file name is set by the third party app using the "path' parameter, e.g., on the /2/files/upload endpoint.

     

    I see you're using a third party library to perform the upload. I can't offer support for that as it's not made by Dropbox, so please refer to the documentation or support resources for that for information on if/how you can control the "path" parameter that it sets when uploading files.
