Issue with userinfo API (400 Error)

Question

Hello,&nbsp;The userinfo API, which was working fine until yesterday, has suddenly stopped functioning. Every time I send a request to the API, I receive a 400 error.&nbsp;Specifically, I am using the following endpoint:Request URL: https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/openid/userinfoError message: 400 Bad RequestResponse content: Error in call to API function "openid/userinfo": expected object, got nullI would like to know if this API has been deprecated or if there has been a change in its specifications. If there is any information regarding changes or deprecation, it would be very helpful. Additionally, any guidance on alternative methods or new API usage would be greatly appreciated.&nbsp;Thank you for your assistance.

Thanks for the report. We'll look into it.
&nbsp;
It looks like sending "{}" (instead of "null") still works. Can you try sending "{}" instead of "null"?

Thank you for your reply.&nbsp;I posted because I was unable to retrieve the username using the .Net SDK, which was previously working fine, and also could not retrieve it using the Dropbox API Explorer.https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-api-v2-explorer/#openid_userinfo&nbsp;It appears to have been my mistake. I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

We've updated this to support passing in "null".
