Upload files Using Drop box API with Android.

Hello friends,
Today i am going to post, upload multiple images to drop box from android application.

Drop provide lib for this, you can download from here. its have sample code also for upload one image.

here i have modify code and made one sample for upload multiple image in dropbox using its sdk.

Before implement this in App, you have to create app in dropbox developer like fb and twitter for app keys.

  4. Hi, Your application does select all photos from a folder in memory card, stores in arraylist and uploads it. However, I wish to choose picture myself one by one from Gallery and then upload to dropbox.

    This is the kind of code, I wrote, but am new to android so am not sure how it handles images.

    final Intent galleryIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
    galleryIntent.setType("*/*");
    startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, 1);


    File tmpFile = new File(imagepath);
    Log.e("path", imagepath);
    try {
    FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(tmpFile);
    dropbox.putFileOverwrite(FILE_DIR, fis, tmpFile.length(), null);
    } catch (DropboxUnlinkedException e) {
    Log.e("DbExampleLog", "User has unlinked.");
    } catch (DropboxException e) {
    Log.e("DbExampleLog", "Something went wrong while uploading.");
    }


    Please let me know where am I wrong..
