PHP - Show thumbnail
Hi peepz, I'm running a PHP project for which I read a specific Dropbox directoty using 'list_folder'. Five files (JPG), matching certain criteria are selected from all returned files. So far, so ...
Wow!! I've managed to work it out :)
I've read the following post again https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-support/API-v2-Simple-image-gallery-on-my-website-using-dropbox/td-p/169202After this, all I additionally changed is
echo $result;
to
$data = base64_encode( $result ); echo '<img src="data:image/jpg;charset=utf8;base64,'.$data.' />';
and now it works!! Thank you so much!
Best,
Knal
Hi Greg,
Thanks a lot for pointing me in the right direction!
I've changed the code based on what I understood from your input:
<?PHP
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/get_thumbnail");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$headers = array();
$headers[] = "Authorization: Bearer XXX_SECRET_CODE_XXX";
$headers[] = "Content-Type:";
$headers[] = 'Dropbox-API-Arg: {"path":"/DropsyncFiles/2017.09.01_22.36.01/20170901223632654.jpg","format":{".tag":"jpeg"},"size":{".tag":"w1024h768"}}';
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
if (curl_errno($ch)) {
echo 'Error:' . curl_error($ch);
}
curl_close ($ch);
//echo imagecreatefromstring( $result ); <-- Returns 'Resource id #2' in the browser
echo $result;
?>
The current output is complete jibberish like follows:

... but then a lot longer.
I imagine this is the actual image data, but now I can't output it as an image. Also, I've read your endpoint download link again (I did before posting) but I can't figure out what this means for my code.
My apologies, I am not very good at coding as you can see :)
Thanks,
Knal

Hi!!
I am having the same issue here. I tried to read to documentation at the link below but I received a message saying: access denied!
Can you help me out pleeease?
Thank you in advance.
Your answer have a little problem,
$data = base64_encode( $result ); echo '<img src="data:image/jpg;charset=utf8;base64,'.$data.' />';
after the $data at the end you should ad ( " ) before closing so this should look like this
$data = base64_encode( $result ); echo '<img src="data:image/jpg;charset=utf8;base64,'.$data.' " />';
It worked:
$data = base64_encode( $response ); echo '<img src="data:image/jpg;base64,'.$data.'" />';
