You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Uploading files to a shared folder through API
Hello, How can I specify a shared folder path while uploading a file through API. When I pass my path as "/test/version1", it is by default going to myhome folder of dropbox and creating the path there. So where can I specify my shared folder name (the folder shared by others). Best Regards, Dileep
Error 500 finishing huge file upload (300GiB+)
Hello, When a huge file (300GiB+) is uploaded using the upload_session API an "Error 500 Internal Server Error" is receivedwhen the last part is uploaded (/upload_session/append with close set). I retry the request but an Error 500 raises again and again. Sometimes, aftermore than 1 hour retrying the file uploads successfully. I am usingsession_typesequential. The same code for smaller files (10GiB) works perfectly. Are you aware of the problem? Is there any workaround?
API Error "path/not_found" when creating shared_link
When interacting with the API, I get a path/not_found error. This happens when I upload a file to dropbox using the path /2/files/upload. After that, I create a link to the file using the path /2/sharing/create_shared_link and specify the path_display received after uploading the file. The error occurs very rarely, but it does not allow you to get a link. What could be the problem?
