Dropbox authorization fails

[marianoju]

After the message

Now you will be redirected to Dropbox authorization page.
Please click OK button.

I receive an error message:

Error (400)
It seems the app you were using submitted a bad request.
If you would like to report this error to the app's
developer, include the information below.

More details for developers

Invalid redirect_uri: u'https://laverna.cc/dropbox.html'.
It must exactly match one of the redirect URIs you've pre-
configured for your app (including the path)

Are you using your own Dropbox API key?

[marianoju]

Yes, I am using my own Dropbox API key.

BTW Today when I restarted Firefox my Laverna settings had been reset to default. This means that amongst other things the random Salt had been deleted. The encrypted notes from yesterdays are now gone. How does Laverna store the settings? Cookies?

[wwebfor]

Then you should add Redirect URIs. It should look something like this:

Settings are stored in LocalStorage. Do you use some plugin like "Self-Destructing Cookies". If so you should add laverna.cc to whitelist.

[marianoju]

I have added Redirect URL and the sync feature now works for me. Thanks!

I use no plugin, but the privacy setting “Accept cookies from sites” and “Keep until: I close Firefox”. Whitelisting laverna.cc (or any domain) is not a definable option. Manually copy&paste of the salt with the same password does not decrypt the notes.

I'am stuck on the same failure as @marianoju when copying the salt, password, length etc. pp. into another laverna instance.
I synced everything encrypted with dropbox (sadly enough that it's not my owncloud) and wanted to decrypt all notes when synced on another brother.

I hope that there will be an update to make this clearer in the app.

I've also noticed the discrepancy of DropBox's App Key being called Dropbox API key in Laverna.

It's nice that it only took about 20 minutes to get set up with DropBox, but it should only be a few minutes!

Hi,
I have a problem: I've added the links and everything perfectly, but now I can't enter my account because the "login" button from dropbox doesn't "activate". It is like it is detecting the fields:

Any clue?

Hi @coworkingon-es,

If it happens on the desktop version, then that bug was fixed in 0.7.2-RC
