Saver Button giving me 'Failed to Load Request'

I'm attempting to implement a saver button to my website, and while I get the pop-up window with your dropbox folders, when I go to save, I get a 'Failed to Load Request'.

 

I have all proper keys added to the page. And have added proper urls in the app console. 

 

 

 

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.dropbox.com/static/api/2/dropins.js" id="dropboxjs" data-app-key="zg8m3w9v761v2uc"></script>

 

 

 

I've attempted in localhost and also in a hosted site (used all proper urls for it as well).

 

Can the saver button save entire shared folder? I wonder if that is my issue?

    Thanks for the report. That's correct, the Saver only supports files, not folders, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though. We should at least return a better error message when supplying a shared link for a folder though, so I'll bring that up with the team as well.
