Hi Joetta Rodriguez and everyone,
An update here for us:
We passed Salesforce approval and the latest version (1.618) is listed publicly on this page:
https://appexchange.salesforce.com/appxListingDetail?listingId=a0N30000000prqLEAQ&tab=d
If you are a Salesforce Admin, you can upgrade the package to 1.618 to resolve the issue.
Let us know if this works for you!

Hi,
I have downloaded dropbox for salesforce. I am able to upload files and folder to dropbox through salesforce and view them on dropbox app.
However, I am having an issue where I am unable to access the added files through salesforce. When i click the name of the file on the dropbox widget in Salesforce, it will redirect me to error (400) page. Is this the expected behavior?

We are having the same issue at our agency. We have used Salesforce and Dropbox for years and this is just a new thing. The files, the users, the way we upload the files are all the same. It has to be a Dropbox issue.

How will we be made aware of the fix? It's not on your website as an issue being tracked.

My Salesforce client who I am supporting uses the Dropbox for Salesforce app.
It has recently stopped working. I can upload a file, but when I want to preview it, I get an Error 400.
My client uses Salesforce Classic, will not upgrade.
We are using an old version of Dropbox, but it had been working fine until a few days ago.
I see this problem appeared in 2022, but did not appear to get resolved.

How big is what you are trying to download? Both in terms of size and folder numbers
- Abe AbrahamNew member | Level 2
Hi Mark, I am a drop box user facing a similar issue. The folder I am trying to download is approximately a 100 GB and has multiple sub-directories in it. Every time I try to download the folder I encounter error 400.
- HannahDropbox Staff
Hey Abe Abraham, thanks for the nudge here.
At the moment, you can only download a folder if it’s less than 20 GB and has fewer than 10,000 total files.
As a workaround, you can download the folder in smaller chunks, or use the Dropbox desktop app, to sync the folder to your computer.
I hope this helps!
