Setting up Dropbox API -- differs than Moodle Docs

Hello. I'm attempting to set up a Dropbox API:

I've enabled the repository and permissions, but I'm stuck on creating the API on Dropbox. I think Dropbox changed this process as the Moodle docs for this process seem to be different starting at step 2. Once you click Create App, you have to choose between "Drop-ins app" and "Dropbox API app". If you choose Dropbox API app, you have to then choose between "Files & databases" and "Datastores only."


I'm not sure which to choose and I'd really appreciate guidance on this. Thanks!

Hello John - sorry the docs differ from what you are seeing. It does happen (with Google and Microsoft as well) that they change their interface and then we need to update the documentation. I will try to add Dropbox myself tomorrow UK time and then edit the docs accordingly  -and then post here again.
