for Web Sample

authorize(\%optional_params)
# for Simple CLI
my $url = $dropbox->authorize();
# for Other
my $url = $dropbox->authorize({

});
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#oauth2-authorize
token($code [, $redirect_uri])
This endpoint only applies to apps using the authorization code flow. An app calls this endpoint to acquire a bearer token once the user has authorized the app.
Calls to /oauth2/token need to be authenticated using the apps's key and secret. These can either be passed as POST parameters (see parameters below) or via HTTP basic authentication. If basic authentication is used, the app key should be provided as the username, and the app secret should be provided as the password.
# for CLI
my $token = $dropbox->token($code);
# for Web
my $token = $dropbox->token($code, $redirect_uri);
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#oauth2-token
revoke
Disables the access token used to authenticate the call.
my $result = $dropbox->revoke;
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#auth-token-revoke
Files
copy($from_path, $to_path)
Copy a file or folder to a different location in the user's Dropbox. If the source path is a folder all its contents will be copied.
my $result = $dropbox->copy($from_path, $to_path);
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-copy
copy_reference_get($path)
Get a copy reference to a file or folder. This reference string can be used to save that file or folder to another user's Dropbox by passing it to copy_reference/save.
my $result = $dropbox->copy_reference_get($path);
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-copy_reference-get

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-create_folder
delete($path)

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-list_folder-continue
list_folder_get_latest_cursor($path [, \%optional_params])
A way to quickly get a cursor for the folder's state. Unlike list_folder, list_folder/get_latest_cursor doesn't return any entries. This endpoint is for app which only needs to know about new files and modifications and doesn't need to know about files that already exist in Dropbox.

include_has_explicit_shared_members => JSON::false
});
list_folder_longpoll($cursor [, \%optional_params])
A longpoll endpoint to wait for changes on an account. In conjunction with list_folder/continue, this call gives you a low-latency way to monitor an account for file changes. The connection will block until there are changes available or a timeout occurs. This endpoint is useful mostly for client-side apps. If you're looking for server-side notifications, check out our webhooks documentation.
my $result = $dropbox->list_folder_longpoll($cursor);
