        }

public bool Upload(string UploadfolderPath, string UploadfileName, string SourceFilePath)
        {
            try
            {
                using (var stream = new MemoryStream(File.ReadAllBytes(SourceFilePath)))
                {
                                       var response = DBClient.Files.UploadAsync("/" + UploadfolderPath + "/" + UploadfileName, WriteMode.Overwrite.Instance, body: stream);                    
                    var rest = response.Result; //Added to wait for the result from Async method  


                }

                return true;
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                return false;
            }

        }

What I have tried:

using Dropbox.Api;

I tried to upload a file to Dropbox (like  google Drive). but did not find anything appropriate.

Solution 1

When calling an API, you should be using async and tasks. A quick Google search has many results and if you go trough the structure of the code that is out there you should be able to get this set up easily.

Google Search: msg Id = 1, Status = WaitingForActivation API[^]

I tried in this way also but not getting the solution.

public async Task<filemetadata> UploadFileToDropBox(string fileToUpload, string folder)
{
DropboxClient client = new DropboxClient(AccessTocken);

using (var mem = new MemoryStream(File.ReadAllBytes(fileToUpload)))
{
string filename = Path.GetFileName(fileToUpload);

try
{
string megapath = "/Dropbox/DotNetApi/DLClaim";
string megapathWithFile = Path.Combine(megapath, Path.GetFileName(Path.GetFileName(filename))).Replace("\\", "/");
var updated = client.Files.UploadAsync(megapathWithFile, WriteMode.Overwrite.Instance, body: mem);
await updated;
return updated.Result;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return null;
}
}
}
