Asp.net Web Forms obtain access token in ReturnURI page

I'm trying to use Dropbox .Net from an asp.net Web Forms application. I'm successfully able to get control in my ReturnURI web page. But I can't find any sample code on how to proceed further to obtain the AccessToken in Page_Load of that page. Please help or at least give a pointer to the sample code. The examples are not for Web Forms.

 

Thanks.

      Hi Greg,

       

      Thanks for the hint. However, that code was still MVC and I have never done any async stuff in Web Forms. So I had to do some research. Finally, I was able to get the access token. Now I can try the API in Web Forms.

       

      Many thanks,

      Sanjay

        Dear Sanjay,

         

        Would you be so kind to send me the webform code to access "access tokens"? I am also a webforms programmer and I am having problem translating the dropbox example from MVC.

         

        Many thanks in advance.
