RespondPageWithJSRedirect() - where is this defined?
Hi, I am trying to set-up a Dropbox connection in .NET (Xamarin to be precise). I am following http://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/T_Dropbox_Api_DropboxOAuth2Helper.htm. When I start ty...

Apologies for the confusion! The SDK doesn't offer an implementation of RespondPageWithJSRedirect. That's intended to be whatever page you wish to show to the user at that point in the process. (E.g., it can optionally contain a message for the user, and whatever branding/styling you want for your app.)
Here's where this is done in the example, and here's the HTML page, including the minimum JavaScript necessary, used for that example.

7 years agoI see, thanks. I do recommend starting from the unmodified SimpleTest on a supported platform as a reference, as that should work out of the box with no modifications (beyond plugging in your own app key). That's what I tested, and it worked for me.
Anyway, unfortunately the SDK isn't officially supported in Xamarin, so we can't offer support for that platform. I'll send this along as a feature request for official support for that though. We can't officially support that third party library either of course, as that's maintained by a third party.

Dropbox won't let me register another app called SimpleTest so that I can get my own apikey for it - can you supply the apikey for it? Or if I use one I have already, will that work if the names don't match? I've tried to work around this restriction, with no success so far. i.e. tried to clone SimpleTest, calling it something different in the process, however when I click "fork", it forks the whole .net library, not just SimpleTest itself. Not sure how to get around this restriction on unique app names (or that it won't let me fork just that directory).

The reason you cannot register a duplicate Dropbox App with the same name is because Dropbox requires App names be unique. I do not believe you need to create a new Dropbox app for your use case. It is okay if the name of your app registered with Dropbox and the name of the .NET project do not match.
