Hi Здравко,
First of all, there are no bugs or problems in our firmware. For several years, we have been using Dropbox API for pushing OTA updates to our devices installed at our client sites. Recently we learned that your product (Existing Dropbox API) no longer supports the same functionality that we have been using for several years. We are asking when your company will resolve this issue by brining the same functionality back to your API. The concern and legal issue will potentially be between our company and Dropbox, since you are changing the service without advance notice and explanation. If we had advanced notification of this change from DropBox company, we would have planned on updating our devices to use a different API provider, but we were not given such a notice. We currently can not change our devices to point to a different API provider, which will take time and resources.
This is an urgent issue for us and we like to have a meeting with your director and our CTO to discuss timing of this resolution to your product. We hope to resolve this without further delay and escalations.
Regards,
Sundar

Hi sundares80,
Hm.. 🤔 Really? And where that malformed HTTP requests come from? 🤷 Is this a bug or (in your definition) no?

🤦 Good luck in you look for troubles. In addition to your clients penalties, as seems you will need to pay damages (claim for compensation) to Dropbox too. My advise is to ask competent lawyer in advance. One more lawyer pay would be much less than claim for compensation for lies (such a pretension would be documented lie - would make Dropbox lawyers task easier). All statements on the forum cannot be used as an evidence in front of cоurt, but statement in a case in may be base for other case! Strict follow up for particular standard is not something that should surprise or need somebody be notified. You should state that you had no any idea the Dropbox API use HTTP. What does HTTP standard state otherwise?! Did you read it? Do it before do something stupid.
Take care for your interests! 😉 I don't protect anybody. Emotional movements very often lead to bad consequences. Learn it in an easy way not in a difficult one.
