(Note that filesDownload and filesGetThumbnail download data in the same way.)

Hi again, I fixed that issue, but I have one more question that I couldn't find answer for.
filesDownload or filesGetThumbnail returns object with fileBinary property. I can't in any way I tried convert that data to image.
Most of the time I get this exception

Unless I do this

But again it is unreadable
And here is screenshot of original fileBinary data and converted data with code above
- Greg-DBIt looks like you opened another thread for this, so I'll follow up there:
https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-support/Binary-to-image/m-p/264555
- Greg-DBThe original `t.buffer is not a function` issue should be fixed in the latest version of the library, currently v4.0.3.
not able to convert fileBinary to url in nodejs.
