Hi

I have a working dropbox account that I wish to connect to Koreader using the "stockage en ligne" (online storage) option.

To connect, I need to fill up two informations on two lines. The first line is easy, it is my name . The second one requires a "jeton" (token?) and puzzles me. I first thought it could be my password but it does not work with it.

Can somebody give me some explanation about this token?

Edit: Problem solved. (see below)

Found the good lua file ..

and the answer. Problem solved.

Quote:
local text_info = "How to generate Access Token:\n"..
"1. Open the following URL in your Browser, and log in using your account: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps.\n"..
"2. Click on >>Create App<<, then select >>Dropbox API app<<.\n"..
"3. Now go on with the configuration, choosing the app permissions and access restrictions to your DropBox folder.\n"..
"4. Enter the >>App Name<< that you prefer (e.g. KOReader).\n"..
"5. Now, click on the >>Create App<< button.\n" ..
"6. When your new App is successfully created, please click on the Generate button.\n"..
"7. Under the 'Generated access token' section, then enter code in Dropbox token field."

Hey,
I want a suggestion that whether my company should store its document using storage services or it should opt for free cloud storage.
Thanks in advance .

I have the same problem. I cannot get a connection to Dropbox from KOReader on my Kobo Clara HD. I've followed the instructions, copied the token, but I always get an error message saying "Cannot fetch list of folder contents".
What exactly do I need to enter as a name? I've tried my full name as it appears on my Dropbox and my email address. None of that works and I wasn't able to find the exact answer in any of the instructions provided.

If you mean App Name, it doesn't matter, any.

No, I mean account name. It needs to be entered in KoReader when configuring Dropbox, above the field for the token. It only says 'Your name'.

I've created a new app and token from scratch. Works like a charm now! Thanks!

Unfortunately, it only worked once. When I tried to use it again I got the error message to check my configuration or network connection. I didn't change anything and the token is set not to expire.
