refresh token is malformed
I am trying to generate new access token using app_key, app_secret and refresh_token obtained using the following url.
https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<APP_KEY>&token_access_...
Thanks for following up and sharing your code. I'm glad to hear you got this sorted out.
To confirm, the refresh token is not the value returned by www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize... itself. Using www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize with 'response_type=code' gives an 'authorization code' (sometimes also called 'access code').
The refreshToken value should be the 'refresh_token' returned by /oauth2/token when you called /oauth2/token with 'grant_type=authorization_code'. That's different from the 'access token' as well as the 'authorization code'; the three are not interchangeable.
For anyone looking for more information, refer to the following resources for information on how to use the app authorization flow:
