The tokens created using these credentials are unique for each user accessing the API and should also be kept in a secure place, like the OAuth service tokens store, another service provided by the platform. These credentials should be stored in a secure environment (for example your project vault, more on that later). The first step to be able to access the Dropbox API using OAuth 2.0 is to register your application to Dropbox, that will allow you to get some id, passwords (secrets) and other information (called credentials in this document) needed to create tokens that will be used to eventually access the API.

NET SDK in C#, you can find an example of getting and using an access token and refresh token, via a redirect URI, in the OauthBasic example (non-PKCE, meant for server-side apps) as well as in the OAuthPKCE example (PKCE, meant for client-side apps). The refresh token doesn't expire and can be stored and used repeatedly to get new short-lived access tokens whenever needed, without the user manually reauthorizing the appįor the official Dropbox API v2. If your app needs to maintain long-term access without the user manually re-authorizing it repeatedly, the app should request "offline" access so that it gets a refresh token.

This needs to be done manually by the user at least once. You can find more information on how this process works in the OAuth Guide and authorization documentation.Īlso note that it is not possible to fully automate the OAuth process where the user chooses to authorize the app and the app then receives the resulting access token and optional refresh token.

Is correct, to receive the authorization code programmatically, you should use a redirect URI.
