How to add 1Password to the authentication view using SwiftyDropbox?

Shahaf L.

Hi

I’m using Dropbox.authorizeFromController(self) in my app to allow users to authorize their Dropbox account.

What I want to do is, add a 1Password button to the web view that is displayed if the user doesn’t have the Dropbox app installed.

This developer managed to do it but I’m not sure how he did it.

Is there a way to generate the authentication URL and load it in a web view or  is there another way to do it?

Thanks

Hi Shahaf, that certainly would be a nice feature to have in the SDK, so I'll be sure to send this along as a feature request.

Anyway, that seems to be the 1Password App Extension, which can be found here:

https://github.com/AgileBits/onepassword-app-extension

We at Dropbox can't really offer developer support for integrating that of course, since we didn't make it, but if you need any help with that I'm sure the friendly folks over at AgileBits would be happy to help. 

Also, SwiftyDropbox itself is open source, so you can modify it if necessary if you wanted to add that directly. (Pull requests welcome. :-))

Alternatively, if you wanted to implement the app authorization flow separately from SwiftyDropbox, (e.g., to load it in a web view you control completely) you could certainly do that too. Dropbox API v2 uses OAuth 2, and you can find the documentation for our OAuth 2 endpoints in the API v2 HTTP documentation.
