- 8 years agoCan you confirm if you've "linked" or "connected" or "authorized" the app to your account? Webhook notifications will only be sent for events in accounts that are connected to the account.
When you create a Dropbox API app as a developer, it is not automatically connected to your account as if you were an end-user of the app. You will need to connect to it, as covered in the OAuth guide:

Hey Greg,
It looks like I am misunderstanding about Dropbox webhook and API. The feature I want as following,
When there are some file changes in Dropbox, my website(It build with rails, I have to use a third-party sdk) will get the notification about file change. Then the website will do something when notification come. There will be only one folder, some users(or just one user) upload and modify file in this folder, not each user has a folder.
Does this achievable with webhook? or not?
Thanks
