    <title>topic save_url endpoint to overwrite any files with same names rather copy? (v2) in Dropbox API Support &amp; Feedback</title>
    <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/save-url-endpoint-to-overwrite-any-files-with-same-names-rather/m-p/393718#M21698</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;I am creating an integration using Postman Monitors.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;And I need to be able to overwrite any files with the same name when uploading using save_url.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Is this possible? Cause the only other way I'd be able to do this is to delete the whole contents and painstakingly upload everything&amp;nbsp;&lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@BB156BE64F7B6DF6C334DBEE4A42A0C3/images/emoticons/1f62d.png" alt=":sob:" title=":sob:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;No, unfortunately the&amp;nbsp;/2/files/save_url endpoint doesn't offer "write mode" options, e.g., to overwrite an existing file at the specified location, like /2/files/upload does.&amp;nbsp;I'll pass this along as a feature request, but I can't promise if or when that might be implemented.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I'm not sure I understand your other comment though. For context for the feature request, can you elaborate? For instance, as a workaround, you can check if the file already exists first, then delete it if so, and then use&amp;nbsp;save_url to upload the new file at that same location the same way. Would that not work in your use case? Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
