CloudRail - Dropbox - Missing client_id
Over the Easter weekend (Apr-10, 2025), Dropbox apparently made a change that makes it impossible for PimlicalAdvancedCalendar to log in through its CloudRail library. This has worked flawlessly for many years, and no change was made to PimlicalAdvancedCalendar or the CloudRail library (which is no longer supported by the developer). Is there a reason why Dropbox has suddenly made this change? Anyone else out there with an application that was using CloudRail to access Dropbox have any idea of what Dropbox did over the Easter Weekend?

Receiving Too Many Mounts error even though I do not have more than 1500 folders.
My app uses the Dropbox API to create folders, upload files and share the folders and recently I started getting an error message about exceeding the tree size. After getting this I re-organized a bunch of folders so I no longer have more than 1500 folders within 1 parent folder. I am able to create and share more folders if done through the web interface, but it doesn't seem to work through the API even after moving folders around. I get the following response when calling the /sharing/share_folder endpoint. Is there something weird going on where Dropbox 'remembers' where a folder was when it was originally shared, and even though I've moved it, it still counts as a shared folder within it's prior parent folder? {"error_summary": "too_many_mounts/tree_size_exceeded/.", "error": {".tag": "too_many_mounts", "too_many_mounts": {".tag": "tree_size_exceeded", "limit": 1500, "current_count": 1500, "new_count": 1501}}, "user_message": {"locale": "en", "text": "Your Dropbox account has reached the limit for shared folders."}} <br />
Can't test dropbox choser api via localhost
Currently trying to integrate dropbox into my weapp for an university project. But for some reason when clicking the implemented button to chose a file from dropbox i get this error window. And I can't add localhost as a choser domain for testing. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!Error 500 finishing huge file upload (300GiB+)
Hello, When a huge file (300GiB+) is uploaded using the upload_session API an "Error 500 Internal Server Error" is received when the last part is uploaded (/upload_session/append with close set). I retry the request but an Error 500 raises again and again. Sometimes, after more than 1 hour retrying the file uploads successfully. I am using session_type sequential. The same code for smaller files (10GiB) works perfectly. Are you aware of the problem? Is there any workaround?
