Submit button greyed out in developers

I'm not able to submit after making the changes in permission, to test API, as submit seems to be greyed out.

    Thanks. Can you let me know which web browser you're using, and the version number of that web browser?

     

    I just tried this myself and I was able to apply changes by clicking the button while it's greyed out, so we'll need to try to reproduce the particular issue you're seeing.

Thanks for the report! To clarify, if you do try to click the greyed out "Submit" button, does the change work?

 

I see that there's a styling issue with how these buttons are displayed. I'll ask the team to fix that up.

 

In my testing the button is still working for me though, but if it's not working for you please let me know. In that case, it may be helpful if you can share a screen recording showing the issue, with the JavaScript console open to show any errors that may be occurring.

    Nope the changes didn't go into effect. Normally it's not greyed out when I don't select any option and I do see the button. 

     

     

    But as soon as I select any permission button it gets greyed out.

        I am also getting this. I click on the Save button and then the Undo Submit box comes up. Can't click on submit - the permissions go back to blank checkboxes and when I do a test the error message says 

        Error in call to API function "files/upload": Your app is not permitted to access this endpoint because it does not have the required scope 'files.content.write'. The owner of the app can enable the scope for the app using the Permissions tab on the App Console.

        I had clicked on that prior to save.

        In the browser developer console I see :

         

        pkg-core-inject-css.min-vflawql8P.js:1
        GET https://cfl.dropboxstatic.com/static/metaserver/static/css/developers/app-info.scss net::ERR_ABORTED 404
