Hi
this is my python file

access_token='mFSg****************************************'
client = dropbox.client.DropboxClient(access_token)
print 'linked account: ', client.account_info()

print 'SHARE FILES'
file_share=client.share('/Apps/gegham/magnus-opus.txt',short_url=True)
print file_share

when I'm trying to run this , I'm getting the following error
Path '/Apps/gegham/magnus-opus.txt' not found . but in my Apps/gegham/directory file 'magnus-opus.txt' exists.
What is the problem?

  • Assuming your app has "App folder" permissions and uses the app folder name gegham, then its root is /Apps/gegham, so your paths should be relative to that.

    Just use the path /magnus-opus.txt:

    file_share = client.share('/magnus-opus.txt', short_url=True)
