5 years agoWe're happy to help with any questions or issues you might have about the Dropbox API itself, but we can't debug or write code for you, especially when you're using a client not made or supported by Dropbox (in this case, oHTTP). You'll need to refer to the Dropbox API documentation for information on what formats and parameters to use when calling the Dropbox API, and then write the code for your library/platform accordingly. I also recommend referring to the documentation for your library/platform as a reference for how to construct the HTTPS requests as needed.
Looking at your latest code though, a few more things I notice:
- Your cJSON begins with '{c:\tmp\pdf\CKF1907319.pdf,', but per the /2/files/upload interface, that should be more like: '{"path": "/CKF1907319.pdf",'. That's supposed to be the path on Dropbox where you want to put the uploaded file.
- You're not actually setting anything in the "Dropbox-API-Arg" header. That should be set with your API call parameters, which you have in cJSON.
- I don't see where you actually send the file data to upload in the request body. Perhaps that should be done in oHTTP:SEND?
