I did have a slash in the value of tFilePath
I'm starting to understand my confusion, we're not uploading and downloading
files, but putting and getting data into/from files... which is definitely
more useful for what I'm trying to do. Now I've got things working and it is
making sense :)

Well, I haven't been sending binary files, so check to see if what you get
back is the same as what you sent up. The phx_dropbox library required
encoding binary data.
ALSO, don't you have to put a single slash after "binfile:"? I don't
remember.

THat worked... so now how do I download the file and save it?
I tried doing the opposite, but the file I got didn't come out right.
dropboxDownload myToken, "/data.livecode"
put it into URL ("binfile:" & tFilePath)

How are you getting the stack into pData?
I just tried this, and it worked:

answer "it:"&&it&&CR&CR&"the result:"&&the result
en
With the upload, everything indicates that it is successful, but the file
that exists is not correct, and it's size is way off.
Again, I am uploading a stack that is in memory, what exactly do I need to
put into "pData" in order to upload the file?
example of my last upload:
{"name": "mystack1.
I'm mostly converted to the LC library, and everything seems to be working.
Best options to try:
1) Download Gerard's original stack, and see what works and what breaks
(and what the responses are). https://github.com/macMikey/dropboxapi_v2.
This is my default choice as I have learned a lot beatin
So far, none of my attempts with the Dropbox script have been successful,
with the exception of create folder.
Basically I just want to create an invisible file as a save stack, upload it
to a folder in dropbox and then be able to download it and put it into
memory.
So below is the script that I'
