Edit a file name in Dropbox API

How to edit file or folder name using dropbox api?

I was using this reference: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/docs

Is there anything else?
Is it even possible?

Solution

  • Your question title and body seem to ask slightly different questions, so I'll answer both:

    You can edit a file (i.e., its contents) by uploading a new version of it, e.g., using the /files_put call:

    You can rename a file or folder using the /filesops/move endpoint:
