Dropbox doesn't offer resources for Next.js in particular, but we do offer an API you can use for listing, uploading, and downloading files, among other operations, from any platform that can make HTTPS requests. You can find everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation, tutorials, and SDKs here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers
And while I can't say if it would be suitable for your particular scenario, Dropbox does offer an official JavaScript SDK for accessing the Dropbox API here: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-js
thank you for the time but i need simple example how to implement this api of dropbox inside any app javascript and the feautre that i need to create this integration like accesToken and the library for render the file inside my web app because i use this code to render my dropbox file still give me the error of 500 internal server error :
import React from 'react';interface FileOptions {zoom?: "best" | "fit";}interface FolderOptions {view?: "list" | "grid";headerSize?: "normal" | "small";}interface EmbedOptions {link: string;file?: FileOptions;folder?: FolderOptions;}interface DropboxProps {options: EmbedOptions;}const DropboxEmbed: React.FC<DropboxProps> = ({ options }) => {const { link } = options;return (<iframesrc={link}width="600"height="400"frameBorder="0"allowFullScreentitle="Embedded Dropbox Content"/>);};// Example usageconst exampleOptions: EmbedOptions = {// Shared link to Dropbox filefile: {// Sets the zoom mode for embedded files. Defaults to 'best'.zoom: "best" // or "fit"},folder: {// Sets the view mode for embedded folders. Defaults to 'list'.view: "list", // or "grid"headerSize: "normal" // or "small"}};const Secure: React.FC = () => {return (<div><h1>Embedded Dropbox Content</h1><DropboxEmbed options={exampleOptions} /></div>);};export default Secure;Hi Saif Lajmi,
Dropbox Embedder is a prebuilt component, not just some name as you think as seems! Ensure usage of this component and don't "transform" it to inline frame. Dropbox links cannot be rendered in such a way.
Hope this gives some direction.
