The folder view of the Dropbox embedder stopped working today on my website. Just says "Something went wrong".

I went to Embedder Documentation - Developers - Dropbox - and the same is happening there also (bottom of page, before "Removing the Embedder"). Tried Edge and Chrome based browsers. Same issue also on my phone.

hi, i'm facing the exact same issue and it's been almost a day. so wondering if there's anything needed to do from our side or not to mitigate the issue, thanks!

@nishu-pixofix There's nothing you should do to work around or mitigate the issue. The team is working on resolving it on our side.

Hello again @Greg-DB,

I was wondering, in case something goes wrong, is it possible to detect that from my end programmatically?

i mean if i can somehow understand if the embedded content is loaded successfully or not (via javascript or something), then maybe i can just show the link instead for clicking on it to go directly to dropbox in case embedder view is not working.

Thanks in advance!

@nishu-pixofix No, the Embedder doesn't offer a way to programmatically detect error cases like that, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

Need more support?
