Can you enable verbose mode (that should be "CURLOPT_VERBOSE") and share the full output so we can take a look? Be sure to redact the access token though. Thanks!

Thanks for your quick reply. I enabled the VERBOSE option, but did not get a response. The CURL error is:
"Operation timed out after 20001 milliseconds with 0 bytes received"
On a more positive note, I can confirm that posting/uploading a file to Dropbox is working, so it is something about the download process.- Greg-DB2 months agoDropbox Staff
Is that the entirety of the output you get from curl? There should be more output in verbose mode. For example, when I try this code with verbose mode, I get a bunch of output starting with "* Trying"... which then shows the IP address of the server it connected to, and so on. Can you share the rest of that? It should be useful context for debugging this. Please be sure to redact the access token though. Thanks!
