Is it possible to disable dropbox notifications for app folder - dropbox

I'm playing around with dropbox.js and have created a web-app to take notes and save them to my dropbox account.
Is there a possibility to turn off notifications for only this one App folder without turning off all notifications?

These days, with API v2, you can mute notifications on individual upload operations via the mute parameter on /files/upload.
See https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-upload for the detailed API documentation.

Is Agora.io able to listen in the background?

Assuming I integrate Agora in my website (PC + mobile hybrid app that wraps a mobile-web site).
Will it be able to listen for users joining a channel while the client is not browsing the website?
Meaning, can it work inside a service worker on both PC and mobile?
I need a reliable way to have voice calls between users on my web application even when they are not using the website.
If you create a WebView or just open an iframe of the website then the user's video is turned off when the app is closed even if the microphone permissions are off.
The user is still on call and can track people joining but as soon as you close the browser, your video stream disappears for the other users.
To have background based workflow, I recommend you use the native SDKs for the app as well as desktop applications and implement them with the same App Id to maintain consistency.
An alternative solution is to use the RTM SDK as the RTM SDK allows you to send messages even in the background if the user is logged in and has joined the channel.

Sonos - How to play a Spotify/AppleMusic track on a Sonos device from my iOS app?

I'm integrating the Sonos Control API into an iOS app. In our app:
the user is signed in either to Apple Music or Spotify via an Apple Music subscription or a Spotify premium account.
the user can play Apple Music and Spotify content within our app (we have the track / album IDs and use this to play music via the Spotiy / Apple Music APIs).
the user also has the Sonos app installed, and is logged in to their music service of choice (Spotify or Apple Music).
Now when the user is listening to a track in our app, we'd like the user to be able to listen to it via their Sonos device. Our app is for children and has parental control, so the user needs to stay within in our app.
Is there currently any way to achieve this?
Options we've looked into:
Streaming: As I understand it, there is no way to stream audio to a Sonos device. The AirPlay-Sonos compatibility is not an option as we're targeting all Sonos devices.
Sonos Control API: We then looked into starting the track using the Spotify or Apple Music track ID via the Sonos Control API, but this answer seems to imply that this is not possible. Is this true even if the user is logged in to the Spotify / Apple Music service both in our app and in the Sonos app? For example I could imagine using createSession with a Spotify / Apple Music accountID so that I would have access to these services, and then using loadCloudQueue to load the trackIDs. But I could be misunderstanding the API.
sonos-objc: This looked promising, but is very outdated and we haven't managed to set it up.
Any leads on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
You are correct, streaming tracks directly to Sonos is not currently supported in our platform. Using music object ids, with their constituent content and account ids, is a vehicle for actual content partners to build direct control integrations with Sonos. iHeart, Pandora, and Tidal have done this for instance.
The reason non-content owners can't utilize this functionality is due to the way authentication is handled. To ensure rights-holders property remains intact, we require partners to execute an account matching flow. This account matching requires direct access to a content partners' auth back end, pretty much limiting these types on integrations to the content partners themselves.
We understand that non-content partners want to put content directly on Sonos, and we're actively looking for the best ways to do that, while still allowing content parters to maintain control of how their content is consumed.

Reacting to discord notifications from another app

I would like to know if there's any way to read notifications from discord app to be able to fire actions on my computer. I have been looking for information about action center in windows 10 but it seems there is no public api to access all notifications in the action center just the ones from your app.
On the other hand I have been using WireShark to check the network traffic but it is encripted so, there's no way (that I know) to check the decripted notification message.
I can't use a discord bot to do this. It must be done in my desktop machine.
Is it possible to do this?

Is it possible to upload files from an without asking the user to sign in?

I have a Dropbox account.
I would like to use it, so that an android app can upload photos to my Dropbox account, without the user of the app having to know my credentials to log in.
Is that possible ?
Is there a programmatic way, that I can get my app to do this, without the user of the app having to know my dropbox password ?
EDIT: I don't understand why this is down voted. If there are multiple posts asking how to do this, by different users, and it is with regard to finding a programmatic why to log in, then it is relevant and shouldn't be down voted.
Refer to this thread on dropbox forums which says that they did not include the file requests feature in their apis so its not possible through apis.
Since the native api does not support this feature you can redirect your user from your app to dropbox app to create file requests.

Push Notification on google docs doc update

I have no experience with push notifications, but I have been working with iOS for a while. How do I send a push notification to a user (i.e. a little red '1' in the app icon like mail or messages) when a google docs document has been updated? Is there even a way?
You can do this on spreadsheets, but it will require some setup for each person who uses your app.
Follow these instructions to get notifications from Google when
a spreadsheet is modified.
Create a server that will save your e-mail username and password and notice when Google e-mails you a notification of a new
modification.
Set up your server to interact with Apple's Push Notification Service (here's some info)
Apple: Local and Push Notification Programming Guide
Apple: Troubleshooting Push Notifications
Mark Aufflick: Introduction to Apple Push Notification Service
It's complicated, but it could make a killer app. There's also a GMail API you could use to get access to the user's inbox feed.
