You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

dependency packages of dropbox:
six==1.10.0 typing==3.6.1 urllib3==1.21.1 requests==2.18.1
Thanks for trying that.
I did find this issue on the requests GitHub that indicates this should be fixed in 2.18.1 though:
https://github.com/requests/requests/issues/4160
Can you try adding the print statement in dropbox.py directly (i.e., our library, not your dbox.py) to see if it's somehow picking up a different version?
If that's what's happening you should also be able to see where it's coming from by printing requests.__file__ .

I can reproduce this with requests==2.18.0, but not requests==2.18.1.
Can you double check that 2.18.1 is actually getting used, and not 2.18.0? E.g., try doing this right before the API call, like you're doing with the Dropbox library:
import requests print(requests.__version__)
Problem still meet
