Dropbox StaffIt sounds like you're referring to what kind of Dropbox account should "own" the API app itself, is that correct? (The account that "owns" the app is the one that can access the app's information and configuration page on the App Console.)

The functionality instead depends on the end-user's Dropbox account. (For example, any kind of account can connect to a "Dropbox API" app, whereas only Business accounts can connect to a "Dropbox Business API" app.)
Thanks, Greg K. So there are no any legal restrictions on using basic/plus dropbox account for API app, right? (because I know that some companies forbid using personal plans for business purposes)
