Revisited this issue and posting here in case others run into the problem.

The error was a red herring and threw me down the wrong path. I figured out that it was an nginx proxy config issue that was preventing the dropbox integration from fully working. Weird.

I have nginx in front of companion. Here’s the post that helped me sort out the config:

> Hi Tyler, do you mind sharing the full Nginx conf? It seems to do a 301 redirect. Looking at the full config might help us understand why that is

The OP was having an issue, but their config is correct for nginx+companion.

No more error!
