Hi smarta1, thanks for posting on the Community!
Are you trying to upload files to Dropbox directly using the Excel app, or via Office Online?
Keep me posted!

Hi Jay.
Thanks for your answer.
I am using MS Excel (Microsoft Office) on a Desktop with Windows 8.1 (No Office Online).
I would like to have a VBA routine to insert in my excel file (*.xlsm).
Best regards.

I'm not sure if it's possible to create a VBA script to upload to Dropbox directly, however, you can look into the Dropbox API documentation for more information to see if there is any possibility of doing so using the info there.

Hi Jay.
I asked because I found the following but I do not know if is complete:
Public Sub DB_PutFile(FileName As String)
Dim req As MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP60
Dim strFile As String
Dim Pos1 As Integer
Dim Pos2 As Integer
Dim arg As String
Set req = New MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP60
strFile= ReadBinary(FileName)
arg = "{""path"":""/" & FileName & """,""mode"":{"".tag"":""overwrite""},""autorename"":false,""mute"":true}"
req.Open "POST", "https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/upload", False
req.setRequestHeader "Authorization", "Bearer xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
req.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/octet-stream"
req.setRequestHeader "Content-length", Len(Result)
req.setRequestHeader "Dropbox-API-Arg", arg
req.setRequestHeader "User-Agent", "api-explorer-client"
req.send strFile
If req.Status = 200 Then
Debug.Print req.responseText
Else
'MsgBox req.Status & ": " & req.statusText
Debug.Print req.responseText
End If
End Sub
Can you help me?
Best regards.
