Can we create account in drop box programmatically.

Hi Everyone,

I am new to Dropbox development. I want to create the Dropbox account and application programmatically using Java.

Do we have Java API to create Dropbox account programmatically or is there any way that we can create account programmatically without using Dropbox console.

Any input will be helpful.

Thanks,
Chetana R

    Just wanted to register my support for allowing users who don't already have a Dropbox account to create one from inside a 3rd party application. I understand it might place additional responsibilities on the application developer from Dropbox's perspective to deliver a good user experience, so perhaps an additional level of approval would be appropriate? However, its something that would definitely benefit application developers' user acquisition and also bring additional users to Dropbox's service so it feels like it would be a win-win.

    The user story would be: "As an application developer I want to allow my users to create Dropbox accounts seamlessly from within my app so I can provide them with a frictionless onboarding experience."

    Thanks!
