We're excited to announce that our modernized Dropbox API documentation is now live at https://docs.dropboxapi.com.
We've rebuilt our API reference to make integrating with Dropbox faster and more intuitive.
What's New
Interactive API Testing
Test endpoints directly in the documentation. No more switching between docs and separate testing tools. You can set parameters, issue API calls, and see real responses from the Dropbox API right in your browser.
AI-Powered Assistance
Get instant help with the embedded AI assistant. Ask questions about endpoints, troubleshoot issues, or get code examples without leaving the page.
Connect Your AI Tools
Connect compatible AI tools directly to our documentation through MCP (Model Context Protocol) using the MCP server. This gives your AI assistant access to up-to-date Dropbox API documentation right where you work, so it can answer questions, help you explore the API, and assist with integrations using information directly from our docs.
To access the MCP server, use the "Connect to Claude Code" or "Connect to Cursor" actions in the API Reference pages, or connect to the MCP server at: https://docs.dropboxapi.com/\_mcp/server
Modern, Unified, Searchable Experience
Explore the Dropbox API through a clean, responsive interface that brings endpoints, types, schemas, and related documentation together in one place. Improved navigation and search make it easier to find the right endpoint or parameter, jump between related resources, and discover the information you need without digging through multiple pages.
Complete API Details
Access comprehensive information including detailed error responses, type definitions, and full request/response schemas.
