I have 2 MSSQL jobs scheduled. One for a specific database, goes to one Dropbox account. The other for another database going to different Dropbox account. I’m having difficulty setting this up.
It’s as if the OAuth token gets applied to both destinations after I authorize the 2nd one. I’ve tried twice and I’ve reset the authorization token for each one twice. Both jobs still push to the 2nd Dropbox account only.
Has this been tested recently by chance? I know I asked several years ago if this was supported and was told yes.
You can use different Dropbox accounts for different backup jobs. When authorizing the Dropbox destination for the second job, please make sure you switch to the correct Dropbox account in the browser before completing the authorization.
If the browser is still signed in to the first/second Dropbox account, Dropbox may authorize that same account again.
Confirmed. The feature works exactly as described. The problem is the browser retains the Dropbox credentials from the first authentication.
My steps to make it configure successfully:
Open browser
Authenticate Dropbox account 1
Authorize connection 1 in MySqlBackupAndFtp app
Switch back to browser and log out of dropbox
Now use browser to log into Dropbox account 2
Then authorize connection 2 in MySqlBackupAndFtp app
