Ghost Mjrm, Be more careful when inspecting the code.

Keep more attention on code reading.

i understand you but where is the point of my app key and app secret in my code if the photo uploaded goes to the user dropbox account not my dropbox account
did you understand me the photo goes to the dropbox account that the user signed with it
during the oauth 2 process
you know in the authorized request it request from the user to sign in in dropbox 'in the browser'

No, the user should not sign in with your Dropbox account during the authentication process. Instead, the authentication process involves the user signing in with their own Dropbox account. Here's how it typically works:
User Initiates Authentication:
- The user interacts with your app, and your app initiates the Dropbox authentication process.
Redirect to Dropbox for Authorization:
- Your app constructs an authorization URL using your app's key and secret and redirects the user to the Dropbox website.
- The user signs in with their own Dropbox account on the Dropbox website.
