File requests
1 Topic(Beginner) API to create file requests
Good afternoon, I am working on a project that uses Qualtrics (a web-based survey/forms) platform to create Dropbox file requests to allow the user to securely upload files to go along with their form submission to my Dropbox folder. All file requests would be from my account. While I have gotten the basics working, creating a file request via the HTTP SDK. Using the following from the API Explorer POST /2/file_requests/create Host: https://api.dropboxapi.com User-Agent: api-explorer-client Authorization: Bearer [[#TOKEN#]] Content-Type: application/json { "title": "12345678 Smith, John (App #: FA24-1234)", "destination": "1234 Jones_Martha OTE 1000S Student Smith_John", "deadline": { "deadline": "2024-09-25T01:00:00Z", "allow_late_uploads": { ".tag": "one_day" } }, "open": true } I was able to translate it into Qualtrics' Webservices screen I am now stumped because I found out from Dropbox Support that the API Token that was in the Dropbox App Console are not long living and expire in short time. So, the question is how do I follow the process to authenticate which will allow the system to still create the file requests? The end users do not login to Dropbox and are not required to have a Dropbox account to submit their files. The documentation that Dropbox Support sent me (Using OAuth 2.0 with offline access - Dropbox) appears to be for requiring the user to login to Dropbox to do tasks. I hope that someone could provide a person who is new to working with APIs with some guidance and advice. Thank you in advance for your guidance.493Views0likes5Comments
