    It sounds like the issue is that this is an async method, but you're not waiting for the result. I.e., you probably want to await your method call like this:

    await ProcessDropboxCallback(code);

Yes, that's true.

But for that I need to make Page_load method "async". Is that a good thing ? Because I am not aware with what will happen if I add async to Page_Load.

That's more of a general C#/async programming design question, so I'm afraid I can't offer insight on that.

    No problem. I tried that and now it is working good.
