Dropbox refuses to connect when using embedder

When i try to use the embedder in an iframe, it shows that dropbox.com refused to connect.

I made sure that i have added localhost in chooser/saver/embedder domain section in the app console, similar posts seem to have this as a solution but it does not work for me, any idea why and how to fix it?

    Hello Aimed 

    Hope that you are well! Would you be able to cross-check if you are using the correct data-app-key value that is connected to your API app when you embed the dropin.js script?

    Please note that if you are using the IP address 127.0.0.1 to access your localhost, you will need to include 127.0.0.1 in the domain section of the API app. If you are still having difficulty, please provide a code snippet of your implementation.
