Job reached maximum retry attempts
When I try to upload a PDF in gmail, I get error "Job reached maximum retry attempts". How I can fix it?
Hey all,
Quick update on this. We've made some changes on our side that should improve the success rate for saving files to your Dropbox via the Gmail Chrome addin. The underlying cause behind the degradation in performance appears to be caused by an issue with attachment links that Gmail is providing us, so we've reached out to them to try and resolve this fully.
As always, once I have more information to share I'll loop back here with an update!

My dropbox is no longer syncing with my Gmail account. I keep getting the error "Job reached maximum retry attempts" I have tried deleting the extension and reinstalling it a couple of times, but it's still not working. Is there anyone that can help me with this? I rely on this for my business.

I'd suggest you both log a ticket:

Hi Dallas645,
My name is Frank and I'm a specialist at Dropbox. We recently had a bug with our Gmail integration that was causing it to not appear for some users, and may be related to the error message that you and some other users are seeing.
As a first step to try and resolve problems with the extension, can you please clear the cache and cookies of your web browser? An additional step that you can try if cearing cache and cookies is not enough would be to disable any other plugins that you may have recently installed to your web browser.
Let me know if you still encounter the error after trying the above, thank you!

I did this but none of the suggestions given to me works.
Me too.
