Migration V1 to V2

I see this code in an example

                var builder = new UriBuilder(
                    Uri.UriSchemeHttps,
                    this.Request.Url.Host);

                builder.Path = "/Home/Auth";

                return builder.ToString();

But this generates no static Uri. How can I register this kind of redirectUri in the my dropbox app profile?

A "static redirect URI" would just be some unchanging URL that you could rely on, as a place to send your users. You don't necessarily need to use that technique, but if you do you should only use a URI that you trust (ideally something you control) and that you sure will continue being available.

The example I linked to is built as a web app though, where the redirect URI would be just be a URL for the app.

Since it sounds like you're not building a web app, that doesn't apply here. In that case, the SimpleTest or UniversalDemo samples would be a better reference for you. Check those out to see how this can be handled in a client-side application.

Hi Greg,

I add a webbrowser control to my app and now I can add files to ther dropbox. Thanx for the help.

I use

Dim myReturn As Files.FileMetadata = Await bindDropbox.Client.Files.UploadAsync("/Backups/" + bindDropbox.Filename, WriteMode.Overwrite.Instance, body:=myFilestream)

My File exists in the Dropbox and Dropbox shows me realtime that I added a file.

But... the UploadAsync never ends and never return to my app. What could be the reason?

Of course I step through the code. I do the call to UploadAsync and my dropbox shows me that the uploaded file is arrived.

But the call is never come back to the app.

In the webbrowsers Navigating-event I call my write method like

                    If bindDropbox.write(bindDropbox.BackupDestination) Is Nothing Then
                        MessageBox.Show("ERROR")
                    End If

bindDropbox is a seperate class and the write method is this

        Public Shared Async Function write(myFile As String) As System.Threading.Tasks.Task(Of Files.FileMetadata)
            Try

                Dim myReturn As Files.FileMetadata = Await bindDropbox.Client.Files.UploadAsync("/Backups/" + bindDropbox.Filename, WriteMode.Overwrite.Instance, body:=New MemoryStream(File.ReadAllBytes(myFile)))

                Return myReturn
            Catch ex As Exception
                Return Nothing
            End Try

        End Function

I have really no idea why UploadAsync isnt coming back.

I built a demo version and... I solved it. :grinning:

I blocked the task with another running task in it.

Now it works. Thanks for the help.
