You can reconnect an existing application (in development mode or not) the same way you did originally. E.g., you can use the "Generate" button on the app's page on the App Console to connect it to your own account, or otherwise use the OAuth flow.

Dropbox StaffThanks for the report! It sounds like you've connected the account to the app without the "files.metadata.read" scope, which is required for receiving the relevant information in the webhook notification. (I'll also ask the team to see if we can update the implementation to skip sending empty notifications like this to avoid confusion.)
You'll need to reconnected the account(s) with the 'files.metadata.read' scope enabled in particular.
Note that just adding a scope to your app via the App Console does not retroactively grant that scope to existing connections. That being the case, to grant that scope, you'll need to reconnect the account(s) with that scope enabled
Thank you for your response!
I disconnected my app and now want to reconnect but I can't find how.
Can I connect my account to an app that is still in development?
Or should I create another one?
