Invalid Async jobid
i am working on uploading multiple files to dropbox in chunks using javascript SDK methods "filesUploadSessionStart" and "filesUploadSessionAppendV2" and i use "filesUploadSessionFinishBatch" after uploading all files, which return me a job id like "dbjid:AABlCnjCjyN1hlWjt7yTgcS9jD95DnYMug9_tSpn66X0fsVN3vXV4I6ZTHshl2vjFMOdOAGH9Q8wd6ofr9_6kFKE".
All works fine and all the files are uploaded correctly on dropbox the only problem i am having is that when i check this job id via API console using the endpoint "upload_session/finish_batch/check" it always returns the response
{
"error_summary": "invalid_async_job_id/...",
"error": {
".tag": "invalid_async_job_id"
}
}

The format of the job ID you shared here looks correct, so we'll need to look into this further. To help track this issue down, can you let me know:
- how long after receiving that job ID did you make the call to upload_session/finish_batch/check that fails with "invalid_async_job_id"?
- can you double check that you're making the call to upload_session/finish_batch/check with an access token for the same app and user as the one you made to upload_session/finish_batch to start the job?
It was my mistake i was trying to trigger the job from my code and then trying to use the API console to check for the job_id which for some reason does not work
