dmartinez Здравко is correct; for long-term access you should use a refresh token. Refresh tokens do not expire and can be used repeatedly. You do not need to re-authorize the app each time. Once you have a refresh token you can store and re-use that refresh token without further manual action.
The official Dropbox Python SDK will handle the details of how to use a refresh token for you, so you would just need to make the Dropbox client object like this, if you used PKCE to retrieve the refresh token:
dropbox.Dropbox(oauth2_refresh_token=REFRESH_TOKEN, app_key=APP_KEY)or like this, if you did not use PKCE to retrieve the refresh token:
dropbox.Dropbox(oauth2_refresh_token=REFRESH_TOKEN, app_key=APP_KEY, app_secret=APP_SECRET)For reference, you can find more information on how this works at the following resources:
