Net Core 2.0 Compability?
Hi,
Is the Dropbox API 2 compatible with the NetCore 2.0? Specifically ASP.Net 2.0?
Oskar
After a quick trial run, it appears to me that the 4.9.0 release solves the dependency warnings, works with NetCore 2.1 and also works in non-windows environments. Great! You should make more noise about this.
Big thanks,
Oskar

Dropbox StaffHi Oskar, the official Dropbox API v2 .NET SDK supports .NET Standard 1.1+, so it should work on .NET Core 2.0. (Note that there's a small configuration note in the documentation you may need to follow though.) Please try it out and let us know if you run in to any issues.
Hi,
I tried it and it on an empty ASP.Net Core 2.0 project and it did not work. There was some kind of error message of 4.3.0 not being compatible and then "falling back".
It compiles, but does not work.
This is why I ask. I do not have the resources to do further research on this if it doesn't seem to work in the first place - that is why I asked. Have you yourself tried?
Oskar
- Greg-DBI haven't tried ASP.NET Core 2.0 in particular. Can you share the error message you got? Thanks in advance!
Hi,
Unfortunately, I can't - I rolled back my project already and did not take any screen shots.
But, it is very simple:
1) Just create any empty ASP.Net Core project
2) Upgrade it to v 2.0
3) Add Dropbox.API 4.3.0 via NuGet manager.
You will get a yellow triangle in your dependencies section in Visual Studio saying something about incompatibility and falling back.
The project will build, but any attempt to use the API will fail in a runtime exception.
Oskar
- Greg-DBThanks! We'll look into it.
