Hello @sagar_lonkar, May I ask how you are creating the Dropbox Paper file, and could you provide an example of the metadata for a Dropbox Paper file where the value ‘is_downloadable': true?

 

If you need to download the Dropbox Paper file that returns the metadata 'is_downloadable': false, you'll have to export the file using the /files/export endpoint.

Need more support?
