Dropbox Community ModeratorThanks for the report! Can you share the relevant code snippet, as well as any error or output you might be getting in the console? Thanks in advance!
I have verified that version 40.2.2 of the iOS Dropbox app resolves this issue. Thanks.
Excellent! I can also confirm this issue is fixed.
Have you noticed that in iOS 11, sometimes the Dropbox --- Personal item is disabled and you can't upload a file to Dropbox? I don't see that myself on my devices, but I have had a few customers tell me they can't use the upload function to upload a file to Dropbox. It works for other cloud storage services such as iCloud Drive and OneDrive.
Here's the simple code I use to present the controller to the user:
UIDocumentPickerViewController *pickerViewController = [[UIDocumentPickerViewController alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:self.selectedFilePath] inMode:UIDocumentPickerModeExportToService]; pickerViewController.delegate = self; [self presentViewController:pickerViewController animated:YES completion:nil]; UIPopoverPresentationController *popoverController = pickerViewController.popoverPresentationController; pickerViewController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationPopover; popoverController.barButtonItem = sender;
If you think I'm doing something wrong, I'd love to know.Thanks!BrendanAnswering my own question, it seems that first launching the Files app and viewing the Dropbox --- Personal folder there solves the problem for other apps. No longer disabled after doing that. Two customers of mine confirmed that was the case. Each of them though it was a bug in my app though.
