Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
Notifications for modified files is not working. https://notify.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder/longpoll is not returning when files are modified.
Can you try again and let me know if you're still seeing the issue? Thanks in advance!
Yes, I'm seeing the expected behavior and times of a couple of seconds. That looks normal. Thank you.
Still not working.
For simple testing I used API Explorer (https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-api-v2-explorer/#files_list_folder)
Getting the content of a folder within my dropbox account and the cursor.
Then I'm using the longpoll with this cursor and 30 seconds timeout (https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-api-v2-explorer/#files_list_folder/longpoll) and then I deleted a child folder within the previously mentioned folder.
Longpoll times out with "changes : false".
Also the Dropbox integration within my APP still isn't working.
And it looks like, if I'm refreshing the Dropbox web page, the deletion evt is eventually triggered and my longpoll is returning with "changes: true". But without refreshing, it is not working. Though I see the folder is removed at the Dropbox web page.
@Thomas_ Thanks for following up. It sounds like there may still be some accounts seeing a long latency with this functionality. Could you open an API ticket here with the affected account ID(s) so we can check on them? Thanks in advance!
