I have a read-only app folder hosting our software licenses. The access token was a permanent access token. It had been working for years until recently. The query responds with the Http code 409 conflict. The only thing I did several days ago was turning on the two-step authentication. Thinking that may cause the error, I turned that off. However, the query still generate the code 409. Any ideas? Thanks! Yi33Views0likes3CommentsHow to determine the folder type?
Hi. (I am using translation tool.) I think the following method can be used to determine the folder type (team member folder, team folder, shared folder), is this correct? I think it can be determined in the following order: ---------- Step.1: Use "files/get_metadata" endpoint to get the metadata to determine the folder type. If the "shared_folder_id" in the metadata that obtained by Step.1 is null. and If the "parent_shared_folder_id" in the metadata that obtained by Step.1 is null, or the same as the root namespace ID. → Step.2: Determine that the folder type is "team member folder". If the "shared_folder_id" in the metadata that obtained by Step.1 is null. and If the "parent_shared_folder_id" in the metadata that obtained by Step.1 has a value that is not the root namespace ID. → Step.2: Call the "sharing/get_folder_metadata" endpoint with that information as an argument. → Step.3: Determine whether it is a team folder or a shared folder using "is_team_folder" in the result of Step.2. If the "shared_folder_id" in the metadata that obtained by Step.1 has a value. (is not null) → Step.2: Call the "sharing/get_folder_metadata" endpoint with that information as an argument. → Step.3: Determine whether it is a team folder or a shared folder using "is_team_folder" in the result of Step.2. ---------- Thask!55Views0likes2Commentsdropbox integration in make.com
I’m running into a 401 “missing_scope” error while integrating Dropbox with Make.com, and I’d love your insight. The goal: Create a temporary link for a Dropbox file via API. The issue: Dropbox throws [401] missing_scope even after reauth. 🤯 👉 Has anyone dealt with th is before? How did you solve it?43Views0likes1CommentDropbox paper - is there a way to extract old dropbox paper using SDK/API

I am working with http requests from Azure logic apps. Over some time I have created multiple Apps in the App Console used them in different places. I have a request that uses my long lived token to get an access token but I didn't keep track of which app was being used by what. Is there any way to figure that out. Is there a record of where calls come from? I don't see anything in the analytics for the Apps.112Views0likes1CommentWhat's the actual issue with Apple FileProviders API
I'm trying to reply to this post https://www.dropboxforum.com/discussions/101001016/dropbox-on-file-provider-support-for-macos-questions/781551/replies/783389 but in a dropbox fashion "Replies have been turned off for this discussion": billgdbx can you explain exactly what is the exact issue with the Apple FileProvider API for a software engineer? What exactly does "download-on-demand" mean compared to the download now button I see in macOS finder? When I briefly read the API docs, it seems like the API should be enough; however, I've read many blog posts mentioning that the problem lies with Apple and not with Dropbox/Google/Microsoft. All these posts are blanket statements without any technical details. I'm looking for the hardcore facts, not opinions. I want to know whether I should consider ditching apple? Or dropbox? If there is an issue at apple's side - I want to know what it actually is so I can make my own decisions rather than being treated like an idiot and a fool. In my experience, dropbox announces all breaking changes to customer as ultimatums without any true explanation. Now that I think about it... it is actually coming from disrespect and even contempt to your customers.78Views0likes5CommentsRest API: naming conventions for new file request
Hello, We are using dropbox API to create file upload requests: https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/file_requests/create And the problem is - how to stop dropbox from renaming uploaded files? Is there any option to do this via rest api? Another possible solution may be to be able to set this somehow globally for all new file requests. But again - we not found any way to do this through settings. So how to deal with this then? Any ideas how to solve this problem?Solved1.6KViews2likes3CommentsSlow playback when streaming with AVPlayer
We’re building an iOS App that streams mp4 video files from DropBox. We use SDK’s getTemporaryLink method and feed the returned URL to AVPlayer(url: …). The streaming doesn’t start until after a few seconds/minutes depending on the size of the file. Same issue when opening this link in a regular Safari tab. When opening the file directly in Dropbox website the video plays fine.257Views1like17CommentsCreate new folder in existing Team Folder
