Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
Hi,
I've used the api to generate a temporary link and I've accessed it, but the Content-Type header is set to application/octet-stream instead of video/x-matroska. Obviously my file's extension is '.mkv'.
In the endpoint's description https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-get_temporary_link it says that the mime type is set to the file's mime type.
Can you help me with this issue?
Thanks
Hello,
I was calling the get_temporary_link endpoint using the fileid instead of the path.
I tried using the path and the content type header gets correctly set.
Does Dropbox support fileid for this endpoint? I saw in the regexp that you allow strings that start with id: ?
Thanks
