Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
Hi everyone,
I have searched the Dropbox documentation on its Developers page and on Stackoverflow, and I haven't found a way to get the upload progress of a file in the Java SDK v2. Could someone help me with this?
PD: I want the upload progress to show it in a JProgressBar.
Thank you so much.

The API v2 Java SDK doesn't currently expose progress listeners for uploads, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
The Dropbox API v2 Java SDK now offers progress listeners for uploads and downloads. This has been released in v3.0.9:
https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-java/releases/tag/v3.0.9
There's an example of using it with with the uploadAndFinish method ( https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-java/api-docs/v3.0.x/com/dropbox/core/DbxUploader.html#uploadA... ) for an upload here:
It works the same way with file downloads; the download method ( https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-java/api-docs/v3.0.x/com/dropbox/core/DbxDownloader.html#downl... ) optionally takes a ProgressListener parameter the same way.
