Unknown error on upload
Dear support,
I would like to upload files to my Dropbox Application via Qt in c++ but it returns "unknown error" despite the "curl -X POST" equivalent is working like a charm in CLI mode.
Do...

I don't believe the "unknown error" message is coming from Dropbox itself, so it's likely coming from the client you're using. We can't provide support for the client itself though, as it's not made by Dropbox.
Can you enable any extra logging or verbose mode though? If the Dropbox API request itself is failing, the Dropbox API HTTPS response would contain a more helpful error message.

Thank you Greg, for your prompt answer.
In fact, the message "unknown error" was thrown even if the file was well uploaded (so I was confused and I didn't check before if the file was effectively uploaded or not... oh my!).
