Upload folder
How can I upload folder using API call?
- The API doesn't offer a way to upload an entire folder at once, but you can upload each file as necessary, e.g., using:
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-upload
We recommend using one of the official SDKs, if possible, each of which have corresponding upload methods:

We also have a data ingress guide here with information and best practices for uploading large amounts of data:

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/data-ingress-guide - I would kindly ask you to improve Dropbox adding the function upload a folder at once. It would be very helpful in some cases.
Thanks a lot in advance,
