Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
Hello,
I have multiple questions:
1.How to check if access token has expired? For the moment I created a new DropboxClient and if it is null I make a new request for another access token.
2.Is it possible to get the parent id of a folder or file? I've seen that every metadata of a file or a folder has an id , but they don't have a parentId.
3.Why can't I make a request for a token without redirect_uri? In documentation it apears to be optional , but when I pass it as null to GetAuthorizeUri() method it crashes because redirect_uri is null in a token request (https://api.dropboxapi.com/1/oauth2/token).
Thanks
I also want to ask about id.
What is the root folder id?
I use the explorer and even I type / or let it empty, I could not get the metadata of the root folder?
Is anything I type wrong?
