Hi marksmithhfx,

I suppose, you haven't logged out of your Dropbox account in your web browser and haven't forced reauthentication (it's so by default). In this context - Yes, it's something normal. 😉

      BTW, is it possible to get biometric recognition for the Dropbox user authentication (facial or fingerprint) rather than monotonously type in your username and password (ie. I hate giving out my facebook or google account information, and I presume many other are too. It just ends up in someone's email list that bombs you with adverts). Biometric recognition would be much faster and less error prone. I am a long way off from getting refresh tokens working (for reasons I'd rather not go into) so I see this as a possible stop-gap measure to make life easier for my users. 

      Thanks
