Requests always fail from deployed website, but work fine in localhost
I'm using the SDK for requests from my Next.js website. Everything works fine in localhost, but as soon as it is deployed on Vercel, I can only get 400 Errors for my requests to the API. See the ...
Thank you for this additional guidance.
I could not make it work at first, but found a solution. For anyone else, new to making this kind of API calls and relying too much on abstracted calls with the SDK (like me), the data needs to be encoded before being passed to the body.
const data = { grant_type: 'refresh_token', refresh_token: refreshToken, client_id: clientId, client_secret: clientSecret, }; const response = await fetch(`https://api.dropboxapi.com/oauth2/token`, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', }, // Note this: the data needs to be encoded first! body: new URLSearchParams(data), }); console.log(await response.json());Thanks again for your concern and patience!

Dropbox StaffThanks for following up, and for sharing your code. It does seem like something is rewriting those requests but unfortunately I can't say what that might be. In any case, I'm glad to hear you got this working.
By the way, the /oauth2/token endpoint does accept these parameter either on the URL or in the body, so for example (using curl for illustration), instead of:
curl -X POST "https://api.dropboxapi.com/oauth2/token?refresh_token=REFRESH_TOKEN&grant_type=refresh_token&client_id=APP_KEY&client_secret=APP_SECRET"you can do:
curl -X POST "https://api.dropboxapi.com/oauth2/token" --data "refresh_token=REFRESH_TOKEN&grant_type=refresh_token&client_id=APP_KEY&client_secret=APP_SECRET"(The "content-type" would be "application/x-www-form-urlencoded".)
Thank you for this additional guidance.
