Intermittent error malformed path
Submitting via Zoho Flow interittently we get a failure stating malformed path. As this works 99% of the time I am at a loss as to what to do about it.
In this example yesterday we received:
An error occurred in 's servers.
Number of reruns completed: 7 Number of reruns remaining: 1 Last rerun at: 3:19 AM, Today Next rerun at: 3:19 PM, Today
We reran it today manually and received:
{ "Folder name": "30585 Site ID 1247 - 111 Jones Road - Dublin - CA - Wireless SO 13047PO ZD 2442 ", "Folder path": "/$Workorders" }
Dropbox says "Error Message : path/malformed_path/..."

Hi Redcom6816,
Yes, your path is really malformed (no doubts). 😉 A path can NOT end with blanks!
Hope this helps.

Redcom6816 Здравко is correct; paths may not end with whitespace. The path in your example ends with whitespace so it was rejected with that error. You can find more information in the documentation here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#path-formats . You'll need to make sure the paths you supply conform with those requirements, e.g., trim any trailing whitespace.
