Hi,

Since short I get the following error with dropbox :
Dropbox/Curl error: invalid_request

Hi have no idea why it suddenly appears.

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!!).

Well that was fast!

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

This problem was solved but exists again since yesterday!

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,
