Add a Chooser to application for users authorized account.

I'm wondering if it would be possible to add a Chooser for an account the user has allowed acces to with OAuth2.  

 

After a user grants permission to access their account I would like to allow them to select a file from their account. Currenlty,  I can enter a file name which exists in the account and use the API to "getTempLink" or other information. However, instead of entering a name of a file from memory I would like the user to be able to select a file from their account. 

Seems this would be possible but so far I am unable to find a way to do it. 

 

Thanks

    Thanks for the post! Unfortunately, it's not possible to use the Chooser via an OAuth API authorization like this, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
