Seeking Help: Adding Dropbox File Upload Functionality to Bubble.io Mobile App
I have a mobile app built on Bubble.io and i'd like to add the ability for users to upload files from their Dropbox (audio files only). Ideally, with the option to upload files by selecting the folder rather than just the individual files. I'd need it to be compatible within iOS and Android operating systems.
I found an App which does almost exactly what looking for (except the folder selecting option).
Here's a screen recording of this app / what I'm looking for: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xDQFbpqPpJNB8IORT5sdCsmnkQIdN7wD/view?usp=sharing
Does anyone know how this works, if they are using the "chooser" or some other method?

Hello tenzin,
Thank you for reaching out. Based on the screen recording that you have provided the workflow is related to our Dropbox iOS SDKS(Swift or Objective-C) that implements our Dropbox API directly and not the Dropbox Chooser. From the screen recording the user is confirming the OAuth flow to grant permission to access their data on Dropbox followed by using the Dropbox API to access their files.
Dropbox offers an API that allows you to list, upload, and download files, among other operations. You can find everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation, tutorials, and SDKs, here:
