I Didnt Understood The Get Access Token Via Code

xwbash

Hello,

In the documents its says;

Example: Auth URL for code flow

https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<APP_KEY>&response_type=code

 

When i enter the page with my app key its says;

Enter this code into app name to finish the process 

 

1. I didn't understood where should i put the access code in (on my app)?

2. I tried post man token requester to take access token but its goes auth url, takes the access code and its gaves me the access token but i didn't figure out the whole process how did postman goes takes access code and convert into access token

3.

curl https://api.dropbox.com/oauth2/token \     -d code=<AUTHORIZATION_CODE> \     -d grant_type=authorization_code \     -d redirect_uri=<REDIRECT_URI> \     -u <APP_KEY>:<APP_SECRET>

in the code above i don't have redirect_url how i can still get the code?

 

I just want to do the same thing in c# im trying to create an php code in c# + re sharper library. But i didn't understood the process if you answer my questions i really appreciated

Hi @xwbash,

For some basic walk-throgh, take a look on https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/Issue-in-generating-access-token/td-p/592667 without redirect URL. Once the basics are clear, you can add automation easy, I beleave. 😉

Hope this helps.
