OAuth 2.0 - Server to server authentication

Anthony M.

Hello,

Is it possible to do server-to-server authorization using Dropbox API? (without prompting a user)

This is an example:

https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2ServiceAccount

Best regards,

Anthony

Dropbox doesn't have the equivalent of a "service account." All accounts belong to users.

Is there a scenario you have in mind? Once a user has authorized your app once, you can reuse that access token indefinitely, so there's no need to repeat the OAuth flow. (And if you just want an access token for your own account, you can generate one in the https://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps.)
