I Didnt Understood The Get Access Token Via Code
Hello,
In the documents its says;
Example: Auth URL for code flow
https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<APP_KEY>&response_type=code
When i enter the page with my app key its says;
Enter this code into app name to finish the process
1. I didn't understood where should i put the access code in (on my app)?
2. I tried post man token requester to take access token but its goes auth url, takes the access code and its gaves me the access token but i didn't figure out the whole process how did postman goes takes access code and convert into access token
3.
curl https://api.dropbox.com/oauth2/token \ -d code=<AUTHORIZATION_CODE> \ -d grant_type=authorization_code \ -d redirect_uri=<REDIRECT_URI> \ -u <APP_KEY>:<APP_SECRET>
in the code above i don't have redirect_url how i can still get the code?
I just want to do the same thing in c# im trying to create an php code in c# + re sharper library. But i didn't understood the process if you answer my questions i really appreciated

Hi xwbash,
For some basic walk-throgh, take a look on https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/Issue-in-generating-access-token/td-p/592667 without redirect URL. Once the basics are clear, you can add automation easy, I beleave. 😉
Hope this helps.
