The check API always returns Internal_error
https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/copy_batch/check always returns `Internal_error` for me. The documentation says `This should happen very rarely`. Is it something on my end?
- 7 years agoThanks! I see you're running a filesUploadSessionFinishBatch job, but are trying to check it using filesCopyBatchCheck. For filesUploadSessionFinishBatch jobs, you should use filesUploadSessionFinishBatchCheck to check it:

I'm using Javascript SDK.
dbx.filesUploadSessionStart({ close: close, contents: toUpload }).then((response) => { this.entries.push({ cursor: { session_id: response.session_id, offset: 0 }, "commit": { 'path': this.path + '/' + toUpload.name, 'mode': 'add', 'mute': false } }) resolve(response); });
I run it twice, for exmple. First time close is `false`, the second one is `true`.
And I call `/upload_session/finish_batch`:
dbx.filesUploadSessionFinishBatch({ 'entries': this.entries}).then((response) => { ... });
And I call `check` with `async_job_id`:
dbx.filesCopyBatchCheck({ 'async_job_id': async_job_id })
Frist time it returns `in progress`, second time it returns `Internal_error`
