Dropbox API Certificate Problem
Hi guys~
I wrote a app to manage my dropbox cloud. Recently i found that the app connot work, and from log found that i got a curl errror [60].
SO i change the Certificate info, it works fine. From this Dropbox Topic i find dropbox change certificates for api.dropboxapi.com and content.dropboxapi.com, i want to know:
- is the certificate of the website replaced regularly?
- is this replaced follow the certificate of curl / Mozilla cert ?
- when did dropbox change CA file from DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA to DigiCert Global Root CA?
Can someone answer my question？Thanks very much~
The certificates on the Dropbox servers are updated as needed. I don't have a specific history/schedule to share on exactly when that did/will occur.
Dropbox works to ensure that the servers are always served with valid certificates, but we don't guarantee we'll always being using a specific root, so we recommend making sure your trust store trusts both DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA and DigiCert Global Root CA.
