I've never been able to consistently have the browser on my Oasis "see" Dropbox or access it. It's so slow and clunky, I stopped trying.
I have Calibre Companion on my iPad Pro. For those times I don't want to use Calibre on the computer to email a book to my Oasis, I can manage it all from my iPad.
On CC, I select the book, use the Read button at the top right of the screen, then select Save to Dropbox from the options that show.
Then I launch the email app, and attach the book from Dropbox and use the Send to Email address that my Oasis uses. (You can't link it directly out of Dropbox as that sends the link and not the file.)
This assumes the books in CC are the correct format for a Kindle. It also means they show in the DOC tab of the Kindle, and not in the BOOKS tab.
There is also an online Conversion site that allows you to select a book from Dropbox, and convert it, then save it back into Dropbox or use Send to Kindle, all from my iPad.
