First-install notes
- Enter your Dropbox app key Before starting, replace <APP_KEY> with the app key from your Dropbox developer app. Without it, the app cannot begin Dropbox sign-in, so users cannot grant access to their account. source
- Connect the sign-in return link Wire the app’s URL-open handler to DropboxClientsManager.handleRedirectURL so the sign-in browser can send the user back. If this is missing, the sign-in flow stops after the user logs in and the app never gets a connected Dropbox client. source
- Use a token provider that refreshes Set up the Dropbox client with an access-token provider that can refresh short-lived tokens. If the token expires and the app cannot refresh it, Dropbox API calls will start failing until the user signs in again. source
