Hi ncw,
Key moment here may be that only one active batch could work at a moment for the same user. According your description the last running batch might not successfully finished yet (or unsuccessfully), while you are trying a new one! This might confuse Dropbox server and provokes some rare bug as a response. 🤷 As a workaround (temporary or not) you can stop any follow up ongoing automatic processing, signal ongoing error, and wait for new user command.
Let's hope this will be traced successfully and fixed soon.
