Hello,

Thank you Greg! That worked.

Dropbox StaffGreat, thanks for confirming that.
All Dropbox API v2 endpoints (except OAuth endpoints) expect the parameters as JSON, though there are some different ways of sending them. You can find information about each one in the documentation. For example, the /2/files/create_folder_batch endpoint uses the "RPC" format, so it expects "JSON in the request body and return results as JSON in the response body".
