Is API v1 still being turned off 28 June 2017?

I know that a cutoff date of 28 June 2017 for API v1 is what is stated on your Developer Blog here... https://blogs.dropbox.com/developers/2016/06/api-v1-deprecated/   But, it seems as though ther...

Yes, API v1 is still planned for retirement on June 28 2017. I can't make any promises, but I'll send this along as a request to extend that timeline.

We're aware of the issue in the Objective-C SDK you linked to. We will be releasing a fix, but in the meantime you can use version 2.0.5 of the SDK (instead of 2.0.6) as a workaround.

I would like to 2nd that request. The APIv2 doesn't really have much documentation around, and is taking a considerable amount of resources to update.

    Thanks for your patience here. We are now reviewing requests for extensions to API v1 access for cases where apps can't be migrated by June 28, 2017. If you still believe you will need an extension for API v1, please open a ticket here:

    https://www.dropbox.com/developers/contact

    In the ticket, please include the following:

    - The app key(s) for the app(s) you need an extension for.
    - The reason(s) for the extension.
    - How long of an extension you're asking for.

    Thanks in advance!

      Thanks for this very generous offer Greg (and Dropbox) -- however, our migration to API v2 has been going quite well and it looks like we're on track to be done relying on v1 in early June.

       

      It is nice to know that there is a 'safety net' in place should we run into any problems or delays.

       

      Thanks.

      Hi Greg,  I am no aware of droping support to V1.0 until now. Just received and email. I alredy sent support request using the suggested link. I am sure there are so many other developers in the same situation.Please keep V1.0 end points until end of this year and update/remind developers more frequently with emails. Really appreciate your support on this. I have several apps and need time to study V2.0 API and update my apps.
