    Hi Laurent,

    An error is being returned from Dropbox’s end. There are no announced changes in their interface, so it looks like they’re having a temporary problem. We’re still investigating.

    Other readers of the post: please don’t pile on with “me too”. We’re already investigating.

    Work-around found. Hang on for new UD release!

    (Actually the result of a couple of hours work since the first report, not the 5 minutes since this one!!).

    Hi,

    Thanks for the report. Dropbox made an undocumented/unannounced change in their server’s responses, which broke UpdraftPlus’s procedure for authenticating new sites.

    This is now fixed in the latest UpdraftPlus release, 2.11.9 – please update and try again, and you should then be able to succeed.

    More information is available here:

    UpdraftPlus 1.11.9 / 2.11.9

    Hi Patrick,

    What version of UpdraftPlus do you currently have installed?

    UpdraftPlus currently uses a central Dropbox app to authenticate by default. Are you using a custom Dropbox app or the default central app?

    Best Wishes,
    David N
