Apologies for the confusion. The curl example in the documentation and API Explorer for /2/auth/token/from_oauth1 are unfortunately incorrect. I'll let the team know to fix that.

This is what the curl example should look like:curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/auth/token/from_oauth1 \ -u "APP_KEY:APP_SECRET" \ --header "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data "{\"oauth1_token\": \"OAUTH1_TOKEN_KEY\",\"oauth1_token_secret\": \"OAUTH1_TOKEN_SECRET\"}"
