Good luck.

I am using react-dropbox-chooser to integrate Dropbox in my application.
Everything works fine, it allows me to sign in my account and it also displays my files, on choosing an image I get the following data about the image
Now I need to send the image to server for that I need to get the blob of the image, which I am doing in the following manner

anas saifi As Здравко said, those "preview" shared links on www.dropbox.com point to a preview HTML page, not the file data itself, and do not support CORS.
If you want to directly access the file data using CORS, you can use the "direct" link type (instead of "preview") when setting up the Chooser.
