Received fatal alert: protocol_version
Hi
Am suddenly getting below error after using the dropbox API for over 3 years. No Change in Java code(Java 😎
Am using dropbox-core-sdk-3.0.5.jar library
Could be there is a change in SSL protocol?

Dropbox recently retired support for TLS 1.0 and 1.1. The Dropbox API servers now only support connections using TLS 1.2. You'll need to update your app/network client/environment to use TLS 1.2 in order to continue making Dropbox API calls.
It looks like you're using the Dropbox Java SDK, so to use TLS 1.2 you'll need to update to at least v3.1.1 of that SDK (or preferably, the latest version which is currently v5.2.0).

- I updated dropbox-core-sdk to 4.0.1 version and worked perfectly
By default, java 1.8 use TSL1.2 as default
Thanks
