Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
We've seen a handful of these in the past, but getting a bunch right now...
com.dropbox.core.ServerException: {"error": "The server has either erred or is incapable of performing the requested operation."}
This is using the Java API:
DbxEntry.File f = getClient().getFile(path, version, output);
Has something changed? The Dropbox status page doesn't seem to indicate any issues currently
That is a DbxClientV1 BTW
It looks like Dropbox V1 wasn't working on some or most servers. I see page resets now, and things seem back to normal.
Moved to the API forum.
Thanks for the report Joel. It looks like we did have a spike in errors earlier, but that should be resolved now.
We're recently getting the same error ("The server has either erred or is incapable of performing the requested operation.") when issuing
