dwWithCat Здравко is correct; for a situation like that, you'll need to instead follow "Programmatically creating Saver buttons" or "Triggering the Saver from JavaScript".

Your first code snippet shows you POSTing some information to your server, not directly to the Dropbox API, so it's unclear what that does. Presumably you then have code that calls the /2/files/save_url Dropbox API endpoint. That offers essentially the same functionality as the Dropbox Saver, but using a different interface.
For your second code snippet, where you're trying to use the Dropbox Saver, I see you're setting an attribute "className" but that should actually be "class" as documented here. By the way, you shouldn't set "dropbox-dropin-btn" and "dropbox-dropin-default" yourself; the Dropbox Saver script will do that automatically.
Also, make sure you have the script tag loaded as covered in the Setup section of the documentation.
- dwWithCat6 months agoExplorer | Level 3The first snippet succeeds. It’s code from my api Endpoint. The second snippet is my Saver anchor tag with the same data as in the first snippet. The url is a link to an Instagram image. The only difference that I can see between the data in the two snippets is the access token in the api method
