Does Paper still support export as Markdown?
I'm trying to use the Dropbox API to access Paper documents as markdown. I have a connected app and a user with the new version of Paper (paper_as_files: enabled). I've switched from docs/download to...
No, unfortunately /2/files/export doesn't support exporting as Markdown, nor is there another way do that in a 'paper_as_files' account, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.
Update: the /2/files/export endpoint now supports exporting .paper files as Markdown.

Any Update?
As this topic still gets at least sporadic activity, I thought it was worth mentioning that the Dropbox Paper help guides still say that you can export Paper docs to .docx or markdown format: https://help.dropbox.com/da-dk/files-folders/paper/export-docs

Yes it's possible to export Dropbox Paper documents to Markdown using the web interface, but unfortunately it's still not in the new API.. The conversion itself works great, and it would be extremely helpful if this functionality could be implemented in the API.
