Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
we have a use case where we are uploading files from our app to dropbox using dropbox v2 api. The file gets successfully uploaded but we dont see any notification in the notification bar of dropbox web ,stating like "file abc has been addded".
How can we acheive this ?

No, the Dropbox API doesn't offer a way to set notifications for uploads from the API, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.
Hi greg
if not through api , is there any setting that need to be incorporated to acheive this ?
please see the attached snapshot , where the notification shows a file has been added to dropbox.
It looks like you're referring to the notifications that occur as part of the flows from the new Dropbox extensions. This isn't something you can configure for uploaded files in general.
Hi Greg
if this is somethings which cant be configured , then how this partner app is able to show the uploaded file in the notification bar ?

That occurs automatically as part of the new Dropbox extensions flow (which is distinct from the public Dropbox API).
