I followed the example (on git) for creation of drobbox river river , and  
I'm at the last step: the creation of river and indexing of document from  
drobbox account.

after the creation of river I get this error to be displayed:

[fr.pilato.elasticsearch.river.dropbox.river.DropboxRiver] [Epoch]  
[dropbox][mydocs\_dropb] Can not index /tmp/test.pdf : Dropbox HTTP Error  
403 : {"error": "Forbidden"}

why the river could not indexed document ?

cordially

Hi Ammar,

When you have created your Dropbox Application, did you give _all access_?  
I created mine with a "Full Dropbox" type.

If you have created it with a "App folder" type, I think you can only access to _your app_ folder files.

Does it help?
