Moved to the API forum.
maki1986 The Dropbox Chooser allows your app to easily request files from users. Once the user selects a file, the Chooser returns a link for that file to your app. If your app used the "direct" link option, it can then directly access that file content, but exactly how you manage that is up to your app.

Is there a way to upload file to my app directly from chooser ?
- dopexxx9 years agoHelpful | Level 6I am not exactly sure what you mean. But if you open the app you'll see a big PLUS button. If you press it you can scan documents with your camera and upload them directly into your app (as pdf). Very convenient!
