pre-signed upload sessions
Hi, hope you're having a nice day!
I'm developing a client side app with React to upload files, with a minimal interaction with an internal api.
I want to use pre-signed urls because I'd like to hide sensitive information like access tokens from the client, and manage everything in the server.
The files I expect to upload are around 500mb in size, I read that the recommended size for an upload is 150mb maximum, so I guess my only option is to use upload sessions, but can these also be pre-signed?

No, unfortunately the Dropbox API doesn't offer pre-signed upload session functinoality, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.
