GET request to /files/download fails with "The network connection was lost"

Hi, Our app uses Dropbox's HTTP API to upload and download files. Since a few days ago, some of our app's requests are failing with "The network connection was lost". This issue was first reported...

I have the opposite issue!
I also have a ReactNative app, and In the last few days (since April 30), I have seen this error occur only for my iOS users and only on the https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/download… endpoint.

 

Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1005 "The network connection was lost."


But I use POST for it. Once I change it to GET it seems to fix the issue on iOS.

WDYT?
