description: "Dropbox has launched a modernized API documentation site at https://docs.dropboxapi.com, rebuilt to make integration faster and more intuitive. The new documentation features interactive API testing that lets developers set parameters, issue API calls, and view real responses from the Dropbox API directly in their browser without switching tools. An embedded AI assistant offers instant help with endpoint questions, troubleshooting, and code examples, while the documentation integrates with MCP (Model Context Protocol) so AI tools like Claude Code and Cursor can access up-to-date API information. Through the MCP server at https://docs.dropboxapi.com/_mcp/server, developers can connect their AI assistants to answer questions, explore the API, and assist with integrations using information directly from the docs. The update delivers a clean, responsive, searchable interface that brings endpoints, types, schemas, and related documentation together, with improved navigation, and provides comprehensive information including detailed error responses, type definitions, and full request/response schemas."
