Thanks! Yes, you'll also need to define "element" which will depend on your page, but should be the element on your page where you want to put the Embedder.
For example, if you have an element on your page like this:
<div id="folder_container"></div>
Then you might define 'element' like this:
var element = document.getElementById("folder_container");

Dropbox StaffWhat error, if any, do you get in the JavaScript Console when you try this?
From what I can see, it looks like it may just be a syntax error. You're missing a comma here:
// view: "list" // or "grid"
It should be:
view: "list", // or "grid"
Thanks for responding. I get the following error in console.
Uncaught ReferenceError: element is not defined

Do you have an example of the full code? I am still having the same issue.
