If you’re not familiar with dropbox paper, here is a quick recording: The core outline plugin technically does that job, but it’s a pane that I only want open every once and a while, so I end up never using it. Use /files/export to retrieve the latest paper_revision.I’m not even sure if this is possible with the current APIs, but I’d love a responsive TOC plugin, ALA Dropbox Paper. Note that paper_revision and file revision are different, but related: paper_revision tracks rapid, live updates - which Paper will then batch together to make a file revision. Other update modes to not require the paper_revision. This provides a mechanism to make sure your programmatic updates do not conflict with any edits made by users. The paper_revision can be passed when using the update mode, which will then error if paper_revision has changed by the time the call reaches Dropbox servers. The paper_revision increments for every change to the document. The overwrite mode will overwrite the entire document, and the update mode overwrites after checking that there are no updates the caller has missed.ĭropbox Paper enables live, real-time co-editing. The append and prepend modes allow you to add content to an existing doc. Update also enables you to specify the doc_update_policy.
Pass the path, input format, and binary content. Updating a paper document with /files/paper/update is similar.
