What specifically would you like to know, Klaus?
use dropboxUpload to do an upload.

Check out Gerard's Dropbox API v2 stack for a stack you can use to play so
you can understand what's going on.
I don't think he has his own repo, so you can download it from mine:
https://github.com/macMikey/dropboxapi_v2
The api is slightly different than LC's library, because when Monte wrote
LC's he made changes to Gerard's code to support things like asynchronous
calls, but they map 1:1.
Don't forget that unlike in the phx library, you have to add a slash on the
front of all your paths in both Gerard's and LC's libraries.

On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth
On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
   and did a little diving.
And God said, "This is good."
