Access token not beeing refreshed automatically
my application support old dropbox and the new one.
when creating the client i am creating it like this
client = new DropboxTeamClient(request.AccessToken, request.RefreshToken,request.Expires,ClientId,ClientSecret);
and then using it
in this way
first Way
var members = await client.Team.MembersListAsync().ConfigureAwait(false);
and this way
Second Way
var account = await client.AsMember(request.AsMember).Users.GetCurrentAccountAsync();
var clientNew= client.AsMember(request.AsMember).WithPathRoot(new PathRoot.Root(account.RootInfo.RootNamespaceId));
var folders = await spaceclient.Files.ListFolderAsync(folderId);
my issue is after 4 hours when the token is expired
When i calling the first way i am getting an error
Response status code does not indicate success: 400 (Bad Request).

it is look like it is failing on refreshing token .
the problem is that this request is not exist in the new client
Team.MembersListAsync(). not exist in the new client
please advice 🙂
Any Update Please
maybe this method client.Team.MembersListAsync() not handling as it should with the refresh token

Omri1984 It sounds like there's an issue with the credentials you're supplying, so trying the call outside of the SDK as Здравко suggested should be a useful test.

I added some logs to check my cred during the running .
I will update here, it holiday now so in a few days ,
thanks for the help.
by the way.
if create a new DropboxTeamClient(request.AccessToken, request.RefreshToken,request.Expires,ClientId,ClientSecret);
can I call those methods
var account = await client.AsMember(request.AsMember).Users.GetCurrentAccountAsync();
var spaceclient = client.AsMember(request.AsMember).WithPathRoot(new PathRoot.Root(account.RootInfo.RootNamespaceId));
if (account.RootInfo.IsTeam)
{
await spaceclient.Files.ListFolderAsync(folderId)}
await client.Team.MembersListAsync()
await client.AsMember(request.AsMember).Files.ListFolderAsync(folderId)
and another question ,When using the .Net SDK when is the refresh token is happening?
does it happen for every method ?
does it happen when creating the client (new DropboxTeamClient(request.AccessToken, request.RefreshToken,request.Expires,ClientId,ClientSecret);)
Thank you

...Hi Omri1984,
Overall idea is correct (only representation change 😉); you may need to check your syntax, etc in your end variant. Additional optimization can be done as "cache" your 'representation' , if in particular limited place multiple calls need to be performed sequentially (less objects construct/destruct -> will left one representation construct at beginning and one destruct at the end).

...
Yes and No. On every method call, SDK (all of them - not only .Net) check if current access token exists and its validity. That's what's done mandatory. If there is not available access token or it's going to expire (or already expired), refresh gets performed (which means once on every 4 hours roughly, if you use your code continuously).

No, it doesn't happen on client object creation time, but on methods execution (as I mentioned above). Warning: on client object creation, the state is reset, which means almost mandatory first call will need to refresh the token! As mentioned something meaningless. That's why it's not good idea to create client object continuously for every call, cosa the call gonna be forced to refresh (not the object construction itself). ".Net" SDK implementation doesn't provide currently some way to keep current state (like Java SDK or Python SDK). That's why the last state can't be restored (without some hacks/patches). Seems like a design bug. Let's hope this bug will be fixed.
Hope it's a bit more clear now.
