dropbox:dir` will return the error `Failed to purge: There are too
many files involved in this operation`. As a work-around do an
`rclone delete dropbox:dir` followed by an `rclone rmdir dropbox:dir`.
### Get your own Dropbox App ID ###
When you use rclone with Dropbox in its default configuration you are using rclone's App ID. This is shared between all the rclone users.
Here is how to create your own Dropbox App ID for rclone:
1. Log into the [Dropbox App console](https://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps/create) with your Dropbox Account (It need not
to be the same account as the Dropbox you want to access)
2. Choose an API => Usually this should be `Dropbox API`
3. Choose the type of access you want to use => Full Dropbox or App Folder
4. Name your App
5. Click the button `Create App`
6. Find the `App key` and `App secret` Use these values in rclone config to add a new remote or edit an existing remote.
