Hi, A simple telnet to 162.125.11.19 (api.dropboxapi.com) on port 443 from my OVH server in Australia fails randomly. Ping is always ok.

Hello, My python code has been working well for months. Within the past 48 hours, the files_download command in the snippet below (with tokens obfuscated) has started to take about 45 seconds while previously it was instantaneous. It is the last line that is the culprit. import dropbox DROPBOX_APP_KEY = "?????" DROPBOX_APP_SECRET = "?????" DROPBOX_REFRESH_TOKEN = "????" dbx = dropbox.Dropbox(app_key=DROPBOX_APP_KEY, app_secret=DROPBOX_APP_SECRET, oauth2_refresh_token=DROPBOX_REFRESH_TOKEN) metadata, f = dbx.files_download('/alerts.csv') Any suggestions? With thanks, David129Views0likes6CommentsFile ID is not unique
I have several instances, where File ID is not unique in my Dropbox account. Below is two sets of metadata including “id”, “name”, “path_display”, “size”, “rev”, “content_hash”, “server_modified” from two different files. Filenames, paths and file sizes are different, but the first field with file id is the same. The metadata is extracted with a python script. I can send the script if needed. How can different files have identical file Ids in same account? It makes file movements and downloads based on file ID a risky action. id:hHMoQrtHqVAAAAAAAAB3ig Credenza assembly R2.stp /FORM 3D Archive/frattini/in progress/cb2, frattini, fall 2022/Office/Credenza/Drawings/Credenza assembly R2.stp 975538 015eca3c02fec960000000280bb3010 63e26b666254d76318fb0328b5999d992017c65fc2a0696b0cbf4e38d0daf832 04/11/2022 11.55.31 id:hHMoQrtHqVAAAAAAAAB3Ig Room Divider Assembly R1.stp /FORM 3D Archive/frattini/in progress/cb2, frattini, spring 2023/grid construction room divider/Drawings/Room Divider Assembly R1.stp 893028 5d6e306a534f872420641 1d9d0ed10006c9d47e259bed31d6968ce0c3f2e0ad1a6c52dc9401e94ee4c367 31/01/2022 16.10.40Solved71Views0likes3CommentsTemplate Created callback does not contain metadata for Date signed field type
We use embedded templates in our web app to create templates. However, when we receive the callback in our Java application, theTemplateResponseDocumentFormFieldDateSigned object does not include metadata values such as font family, font size, and date format. Secondly, when we create a signature request using the SubFormFieldsPerDocumentDateSigned object, we notice that only the font_family and font_size properties are implemented, while the date format is missing. When creating a "Date Signed" field in the embedded template editor, we can set the font family, font size, and date format. Why aren't these values included in the template creation callback? Additionally, why is the date format missing when manually creating the fields for a signature request?Solved47Views0likes4CommentsGetting the files (svgs and images) in a public Dropbox folder
I have a public Dropbox folder that would have a bunch of files in it (the user can paste their own public link). In that folder, I want to be able to get all the files that are there; specifically images. I would like to get their names, links, thumbnails etc and then have the user download them. For now, I would just like to see what files are in a folder. Any help on how I can achieve this would be greatly appreciated. I am using the Javascript SDK.38Views0likes3CommentsDropbox API 「/list_folder」のデフォルトのソート順について
お世話になっています。 「/list_folder」について、API仕様(https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-list_folder)を読む限り、ソートに関するオプションが存在せず、明示的にソート順を指定できない認識ですが、 このAPIが返すデフォルトのソート順を教えていただきたいです。 また、このAPIではソートがサポートされてない認識ですが、 Dropbox APIで、ソートを指定してフォルダー/ファイルを取得する方法がある場合は教えていただきたいです。 よろしくお願い致します。31Views0likes2CommentsMissing parameter: client_id for lwc
Im working on a lwc where id like to embed a signing process in iframe, I was able to successfully retrieve sign URL, but when I try to use it on iframe I got following error, at which step do I need to set my client id? So far I used this with client id in request body String apiUrl = 'https://api.hellosign.com/v3/signature_request/create_embedded_with_template'; and request.setEndpoint('https://api.hellosign.com/v3/embedded/sign_url/' + signatureId); with just signature id in request body Also I have a problem setting body for my request, I used this class to generate json string, but when I use this approach I get error({"error":{"error_msg":"No template_id or template_ids specified","error_path":"template_id","error_name":"bad_request"}}) HelloSignJSON.Signing_options so = new HelloSignJSON.Signing_options(); so.default_type = 'draw'; so.draw = true; so.phone = true; so.type = true; so.upload = true; HelloSignJSON.Signers signer = new HelloSignJSON.Signers(); signer.role = 'Lead.Customer'; signer.name = 'Rostyslav'; signer.email_address = 'popov.rst@gmail.com'; List<HelloSignJSON.Signers> signers = new List<HelloSignJSON.Signers>{signer}; HelloSignJSON hsj = new HelloSignJSON(); hsj.template_ids = new List<String>{'90c43afee504f24a2dcd67ab7991f8f3f5900ef3'}; hsj.client_id = 'CLIENT_ID'; hsj.subject = 'Embedded Subject'; hsj.message = 'Embedded message'; hsj.signing_options = so; hsj.test_mode = true; hsj.signers = signers; String requestBody = JSON.serialize(hsj);136Views0likes17Commentsfile upload failed randomly
While uploading the document using the Dropbox API [https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/upload], randomly the document gets not uploaded, the file presents with 0 bytes, if i open below, ".pdf files are supported but something went wrong/ dropbox" Why? It occurs randomly, could you please check this from your end? Note: I'm using the Dropbox in Web - Windows (Basic plan)file downloads have wrong content-type header
Hello, I'm testing out dropbox v2 files api. when I call "POST https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/download"API, the downloaded file seems to be always returned with the content-type header set toapplication/octet-stream. Am I doing something wrong or is this to be expected? As far as I can tell the contents of file file are OK, it's just the header that's wrongSolved2.6KViews0likes3CommentsSaver API
I have a website. I want to store files from clients in dropbox servers for security reasons. So, I want to have a Form with some fields and the Saver API button for upload. When my clients use the Save API button and upload a file, will the file reside ( be it in any folder like tmp or format like a name with tmp extension etc)on my web site server and before getting transferred to dropbox servers.55Views0likes3Comments
