    session.Put("dstpath","/mylifebook")
    session.Put("dstfile",dropbox_localfilename)

It is working for me... I´m just doing a 250MB videoupload to my dropbox....

Seems like your app runs out of correct order of the offset...

Try to reproduce it in a small project and upload your project

ok, my test file was too small. With a bigger file it works.

But the access token that i used is my accesstoken for developer and so destination path goes to my account (developer) and not in account of user that use the app on the phone.
Where is the error? if i don't use accesstoken, i've a "bad request" for error in http authentication..
I need that destination path is in the user dropbox and not in my developer account.
thanks

In Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    '--- DROPBOX --------------------------------
    If FirstTime = True Then
        clientID = "yyyyyyyyyyyy"
        accesstoken = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" ' my dev token
End If
    '--------------------------------------------------------------------------

in Sub backupDB_Dropbox
    Log("backupDB_Dropbox")
   dbx.Initialize(Me,"DropBox",accesstoken,True)
   ...

in Sub uploadFile

    pws.KeepAlive(True)

    Dim session As Map
       session.Initialize
       session.Put("srcpath",zipDestinationPath)     
       session.Put("srcfile",modGeneral.dropbox_remoteFileName)  
       session.Put("dstpath","/mylifebook")
       session.Put("dstfile",modGeneral.dropbox_remoteFileName)

    session.Put("offset",0)
    session.Put("packetsize",16384)
    dbx.UploadSessionStart(session)

Where is the error?

You need to request a token in behalf of the user.

it's very difficult to implement.
I need to add your all files in your example (dropbox.bas, keyValueStore, etc.)?
i dont understand.. sorry

I´ve posted the code used... It shows the way you need to go to follow the oauth2 authentification.

See the Dropbox Documentation for more info about OAuth.
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation

and

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/oauth-guide

You need to go this way or any other way to Authenticate using OAuth2

That´s the way to go
