Use javascript to create and write file csv by api
Hello,
I want to use Javascript call API to create csv file (with data) on Dropbox.

The /2/files/upload endpoint allows an app to upload a file to Dropbox by supplying the file data in the API call request body. The example in the documentation shows how one might do so by using curl to upload the contents from a file on the local filesystem, but that is not a requirement. Exactly where/how you get the file data to upload is up to you.
For JavaScript, we recommend using the official Dropbox API v2 JavaScript SDK. That SDK has a corresponding filesUpload method. You can find an example of using it here. That example gets the file data to upload from a file input field in an HTML form, for instance, not directly from a local filesystem.
