Webhook notifications will only be sent for changes in the accounts of users that are "linked" to your app. Can you check that you have linked your account to your app and that you are making changes in that account?

Thanks for reply.

I followed following steps:

1. I have created application on dropbox with full access.

2. I created web application & I follwed OAuth 2 Flow.

3. Then I was able to access my  all dropbox files. I was able to upload, download, rename etc operation on the files.

4. I have created one Webhook URI  on my other server(My Website code is not resides on this server). I have added this URI in application & this URI has enabled.

 

I am making changes in this same dropbox acccount(which I have chosen while OAuth 2 Flow).  But I am not getting changed information on specified URI.

Please suggest me if I wrong.

 

Many Thanks,

    Thanks, in that case, please open an API ticket with the specifics (i.e., the relevant app ID, user ID, webhook URI, and path and timestamp of a file change) so we can look into it for you:
