Keepass 2.3.7 Using Dropbox API Version 2.0 (Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit)

A few day ago, suddenly my keepass can't access "my_keepass.kdbx" on dropbox, even if i created new credential wizard through menu "tool --> url credential wizard", i'm still unable to access it.

As we know ( even if you are late to know) Dropbox API Version 1 has been deprecated on 28th September 2017, some application which depending on Dropbox API Version 1 will produce error, and this change has effect on keecloud too.

After sometime googling and read forum on KeeCloud's forum, i found the solution, and yes, it is simple.


  1. First, i'm using Keepass 2.3.7 (Portable Version) on Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit, to fix this issue, you may update your Keepass if you want it. But the most important step is you must revoke keecloud from your dropbox, because new KeeCloud doesn't need username, it just need the credential number from dropbox, do this step inside your dropbox setting. (Personal Setting --> conneccted application --> keecloud), clikc the [X] to remove keecloud from connected application area.
KeeCloud.plgx File 4 MB KeeCloud.zip Zip archive 3 MB

  1. Open your Keepass folder, go to "D:\PortableApps\PortableApps\KeePass\plugins\", remember, i'm using portable version, if you install it, the position will be very different, but even if you are using the same portable version, folder location maybe different too.

  1. Move KeeCloud.plgx to "D:\PortableApps\PortableApps\KeePass\plugins" and replace old file.

  1. Extract KeeCloud.zip until you get KeeCloud folder and move all KeeCloud\* to "D:\PortableApps\PortableApps\KeePass\plugins\dlls\" and replace all old file inside it.

  1. Then open keepass and go to tools --> Url Credential Wizard and follow the instruction on the screen, this step will open Dropbox through default browser on your computer.



  1. Sign in to your dropbox and allow KeeCloud to access your dropbox file.


  1.  After this step, you will get credential code (accessess code).


  1. Copy it and paste into opened windows from credential configuration.



  1. Click Next, you will get passcode for KeeCloud to access Dropbox, copy it to notepad and delete it after finish (don't save it). Open your existing file_keepass.kdbx, using, open URL menu from Keepass.




  1. Insert URL with dropbox://keepass_database_folder/keepass_file.kdbx, and insert passcode from step 10 and click OK


for some reason, if you are still can't connect to your kdbx file at dropbox, you can fill username with email which you are using login to dropbox.




  1. Type your keepass_file.kdbx master password and click OK



  1. Done.

SOME INSTRUCTION HERE ARE OBSOLETE, PLEASE SEE THIS LINK FOR UPDATED INSTRUCTION

What is KeePass?
Today you need to remember many passwords. You need a password for the Windows network logon, your e-mail account, your website's FTP password, online passwords (like website member account), etc. etc. etc. The list is endless. Also, you should use different passwords for each account. Because if you use only one password everywhere and someone gets this password you have a problem... A serious problem. The thief would have access to your e-mail account, website, etc. Unimaginable.

KeePass is a free open source password manager, which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a key file. So you only have to remember one single master password or select the key file to unlock the whole database. The databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known (AES and Twofish). For more information, see the keepass.info

Using Keepass 2 With Dropbox (Direct save to DropBox NOT syncing it with DropBox)

1. Download and install KeePass ( i'm using keepass portable version)


2. Download KeeCloud Plugin from https://bitbucket.org/devinmartin/keecloud/downloads
3. Copy KeeCloud.plgx and put inside KeePass directory, we don't use dll file, because that files for developers.



4. Open KeePass --> Tools --> Plugins, you should see KeeCloud plugin on there.


5. Create your database and set your master password, you would need master password to open database file.



7. Tools --> Credential Wizard, and choose Dropbox, and follow instruction and allow KeeCloud to accesses your Dropbox.

8. Save credential data to your database by click save as Entry button




8. Now copy username and password to notepad (for temporary) don't forget to delete it !!!
9. Upload your database.kdbx to your dropbox, in my case it named tmp.kdbx
10. File --> Open --> Open URL, and type your credential username and password.


11. If everything okay, you will see all your password inside KeePass safe.
