Hey Hi saw your edited comment now, which you have asked above, That should take care of the authentication, and as I mentioned I haven't used dropbox api, but the instructions on the docs are pretty simple and achieve the results in a straightforward manner. Then call this url with a POST request with the above code( all descriptions in the docs), and you will get your bearer token. You will get a response object like this ?code=ABCDEFG&state= (more info on everything about setting up here ) Right at the beginning itself under 'Authorization', they have provided everything you will need for authorization, make a GET request at, with your parameters created at the app dashboard at Dropbox, Here are some links, you might want to look at.īut the best I'll say is to directly use the dropbox api itself, which you must have seen here, However, you can check out auth0 it self, it's pretty reliable, darn easy to set up, is free for a limited time,īut does come at a price for regular usage.

Well coming to authenticating with dropbox api, since I haven't been using it in any case scenarios, I do not have an idea of the packages that might be available for react native for the same. I hope I was clear and you'd be able to resolve the wonderful you got it working and you are welcome. Well do remember that the path in JSON.stringify is ONLY for dropbox api, there is NO 'data' part for google drive. You might want to have a look at this link from the wiki docs,įor a complete idea of the file and directory system.(Please be careful while visiting the link, the project has been shifted, so make sure it's exactly the above, with wkh237, copy and paste it rather than clicking it) It may be in /content/com.projectname/ or /data/data/. '/folder1/folder2/img-from-react-native.png', it will get stored in folder2 inside folder1 etc etc.Īnd as you mention, yes, the PATH_TO_THE_FILE, is the path of the stored file inside your project. So in the above case, it gets stored as the png file under the root/home directory of dropbox, if you were to give a value, So for the dropbox api, the path property of the object, inside JSON.stringify, is the path in which the uploaded file gets stored at within the dropbox folder system.
