API errors 400 and 401
Hi everyone. I try to create an app and the debugger (GNU gdb 7.8 for MinGW 4.9.2 32 bit) gives me one time the error 401 and two times the error 400.
401: Bad or expired token. This can happen if the user or Dropbox revoked or expired an access token. To fix, you should re-authenticate the user.
400: Bad input parameter. Error message should indicate which one and why.

Do you have any idea how to solve it? I really don't know how to authenticate a user. Maybe debugger can tell me more details?
I use the OAuth 1.0
Thanks in advance.

We'll be happy to help with any issues you're having with the Dropbox API, but I'll need some more information. Please reply with:
- the name and version of the platform and SDK/library you are using, if any
- the full text of the error/any output
- the relevant code snippet(s) Hi everyone again, I found the solution. The problem was on App key and App secret. I had put less (<) and greater (>) symbols, before and after them respectively.
Imagine App key
dfhsdf03459025tg
and Secret key
fdg84h40f8g8sap
So, I put these ones:
<dfhsdf03459025tg>
<fdg84h40f8g8sap>
Now it has been solved. Thanks.
