Thanks for your reply. I guess, I'll just hide the button for now.

Is there any specific place/page/channel I can follow to see if/when this feature is maybe added?

      I got lost in the same blob trap, but found a solution...

      csvFile = build up a string of the whole file...

      const dataURI = 'data:text/plain,' + encodeURIComponent(csvFile);
      Dropbox.save(dataURI, "filename.csv", options);

        the "ampsersand colon semicolon" is just a colon.
