Unexpected response code 400

Hi,

 

I had been able to successfully connect to dropbox using dropbox api. I am using the bundle dropbox-core-sdk 1.7.6 from maven repository. 

But since recently I am getting the below error from the same code.

 

Caused by: com.dropbox.core.DbxException$BadResponse: unexpected response code: 400
at com.dropbox.core.DbxClient$4.handle(DbxClient.java:274)
at com.dropbox.core.DbxClient$4.handle(DbxClient.java:270)
at com.dropbox.core.DbxRequestUtil.doGet(DbxRequestUtil.java:265)
at com.dropbox.core.DbxClient.doGet(DbxClient.java:1912)
at com.dropbox.core.DbxClient.getAccountInfo(DbxClient.java:270)
at org.apache.camel.dropbox.utils.DropboxApp.connect(DropboxApp.java:42)

 

Any idea what could be going wrong?

 

Below is the code:

final DropboxAppConfiguration appConfig = new DropboxAppConfiguration(appKey, appSecret,
                accessToken, host, port);
        final DropboxApp app = DropboxApp.create(appConfig);
        try {
            client = app.connect();
            logger.debug("Client connected: " + client.getAccountInfo().displayName);
        } catch (final FileNotFoundException e) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException(e);
        } catch (final IOException e) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException(e);
        } catch (final DbxException e) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException(e);
        }

  • The Dropbox Java SDK you're using (v1.7.6) is old and is using the now retired API v1. Calling API v1 will return a 400 error since it is now disabled.

     

    You should instead use the latest version of the Dropbox Java SDK (currently v3.0.5), which uses API v2.

      I AM not a developer - I am but a humble user. The answer doesn’t give me any clues about remedies to my problem. What can I do to make my connection work again?

        Asakela This is something the developer of the third party app would need to help with. I recommend you contact them for assistance.

      Hola,

      Yo engo el mismo problema, pero creo estar usando la versión más reciente de la api java de dropbox:

       

      El código que estoy usando es:

      package dropbox;
      
      // Include the Dropbox SDK.
      import com.dropbox.core.*;
      import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.*;
      import java.io.*;
      import java.util.Locale;
      
          
      public class Main {
      
          public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, DbxException{
              
              // 1) Provide app key and secret to the new DbxWebAuthNoRedirect object.
              final String APP_KEY = "asdf";
              final String APP_SECRET = "asdf";
              
              DbxAppInfo appInfo = new DbxAppInfo(APP_KEY, APP_SECRET);
              
              DbxRequestConfig config = new DbxRequestConfig(
                  "JavaTutorial/1.0", Locale.getDefault().toString());
              
              DbxWebAuthNoRedirect webAuth = new DbxWebAuthNoRedirect(config, appInfo);
              
              // 2) start the OAuth flow
              String authorizeUrl = webAuth.start();
              // Have the user sign in and authorize your app.
              System.out.println("1. Go to: " + authorizeUrl);
              System.out.println("2. Click \"Allow\" (you might have to log in first)");
              System.out.println("3. Copy the authorization code.");
              String code = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)).readLine().trim();        
              
              DbxAuthFinish authFinish = webAuth.finish(code);
              String accessToken = authFinish.accessToken;
      
              DbxClient client = new DbxClient(config, accessToken);
              System.out.println("Linked account: " + client.getAccountInfo().email);        
              
          }
      }

       

      Y obtengo el siguiente error:

      Exception in thread "main" com.dropbox.core.DbxException$BadResponse: unexpected response code: 400
      	at com.dropbox.core.DbxClient$4.handle(DbxClient.java:350)

      	at com.dropbox.core.DbxRequestUtil.doGet(DbxRequestUtil.java:242)
      	at com.dropbox.core.DbxClient.doGet(DbxClient.java:2167)
      	at com.dropbox.core.DbxClient.getAccountInfo(DbxClient.java:346)
      	at dropbox.Main.main(Main.java:49)
      C:\Users\tnogales\AppData\Local\NetBeans\Cache\8.2\executor-snippets\run.xml:53: Java returned: 1
      BUILD FAILED (total time: 2 seconds)

       

       

      Me estoy rompiendo la cabeza y no encuentro la solución :(

        De acuerdo con su captura de pantalla, también está usando una versión anterior del SDK (1.8.2). Actualice a la última versión (actualmente 3.0.8).

         

        Como referencia, el reemplazo de getAccountInfo es getCurrentAccount.
