If we are generating access token directly without setuping the Oauth flow for how much time it will be valid?
Access tokens typically last about 4 hours.
And any way can we create a token or any other authentication method that we can use like instead of creating again and again create once and use until revoked ?Long-lived access tokens are no longer available. You need to use short-lived tokens along with a refresh token. Refer to the OAuth Guide and authorization documentation.

Dropbox Staffkiranghuge Feel free to elaborate if you need help with something in particular, but for reference, Dropbox is no longer offering the option for creating new long-lived access tokens. Dropbox is now issuing short-lived access tokens (and optional refresh tokens) instead of long-lived access tokens. You can find more information on this migration here.
Apps can still get long-term access by requesting "offline" access though, in which case the app receives a "refresh token" that can be used to retrieve new short-lived access tokens as needed, without further manual user intervention. Refresh tokens do not expire automatically and can be used repeatedly. You can find more information in the OAuth Guide and authorization documentation. There's a basic outline of processing this flow in this blog post which may serve as a useful example.
