Activation failure
Recently, I can't obtain "access token" through this url (https://api.dropbox.com/oauth2/token) so that I've been unable to activate the cloud.
The device's curl always shows : * Resolving timed out after 5009 milliseconds. But my network status is normal.
Please tell me how to analyze. Thank u very much.

Hello Cici cici,
I'll be happy to help with any issues you're having with the Dropbox API, but I'll need some more information. Please reply with:
- the name and version number of the platform and SDK/library you are using, if any
- the steps to reproduce the issue, including relevant code snippet(s), but don't include any access or refresh token(s)
- the full text of any error or unexpected output
Alternatively, you can open an API ticket with the above information using the following link:
Hi iNeil.
Thank you so much for your assistance. I only used the api to get the token and authenticate, without using any sdk/ library, and now I can finally get the 'AC token 'after extending the curl timeout, but at the same time when i want to get other informations by (
), there are many error codes such as: 400, 404, 0, Failure writing output to destination...

Hi Cici cici,
That error message is NOT Dropbox (or any other service) related! 🙂
You have mistake in your script that calls the curl command. The destination file (or other entry in use) is NOT accessible for write for your code - whatever you have pointed using '-o' or '--output' option. That's it. Select another destination place (where your script may write to) or fix the access permission of the current destination. 😉
Hope this gives direction.
