Background download from app extension in SwiftyDropbox
Hi -- my macOS app was working fine when I was downloading from Dropbox in the main app, but once I added download calls from my FileProvider helper app, I started getting a string of errors.

Thanks for writing this up. First, for reference, can you let me know what version of SwiftyDropbox you have installed? If you're not using the latest version, currently v8.2.1, please upgrade to that and let me know if you're still seeing this issue. If so, please also share the snippet of code you're running to do the download that triggers this.
And thanks for letting us know about the issue with the documentation sidebar as well. I'll report that to the team.
Further details on this:
I know the app group is working; I've been able to access the app group's folder under Group Containers from both the main app and the extension.
Whether I have the transport client set up with the group ID or not, download requests from the main app succeed *until* the extension is initialised. It definitely requires both of them to be attempting to use the session to get the problem.
