Path Not Found Error
I'm trying to download a simple file from a Dropbox for a rather large C# program I am developing. My file path for the file in the dropbox is: "C://Users//xxxx//Dropbox (MAD treat)//C#//Sweet...
Thanks!
I finally figured out that the default directory was "\\Apps\\MyAppFolder". . . . and that was the only folder I could read from or write to without going to the "production" mode. Part of the confusion was I was trying to use some subdirectories to the default directory to.

Dropbox StaffThe DownloadAsync method does not support the empty string as the path value. The empty string would refer to root, a folder, but the DownloadAsync method only supports files.
You may actually be referring to the ListFolderAsync method, which does support the empty string, which is the right way to list the contents of root.
Note that for apps with the app folder permission though, "root" is interpreted as the root of the special app folder made for the app, which is empty when first created. If it is still empty, you will correctly get an empty list back.
This is not related to whether or not your app is "published". You also do not need to include the "/Apps" path component yourself.
