Dropbox Community ModeratorTo properly call /2/auth/token/from_oauth1, you will need four pieces:
- In the "Authorization" header, as Basic authentication, you need to provide the 1) app key and 2) app secret.
- In the request body, as JSON, you need to provide the 3) oauth1_token, i.e., the OAuth 1 access token key, and 4) oauth1_token_secret, i.e., the OAuth 1 access token secret.
These 4 strings would all be different strings.
Are you sending up all 4 of those?
Thank you for quickly response.
1) Am I need to pass ( appKey: appSecret ) in the Authorization header ?
3) oauth1_token is the appKey ?
4) oauth1_token_secret is the secret ?
My request is made by this way :
- Greg-DBYou do need to pass the app key and secret in the Authorization header.
The oauth1_token is not the app key, and the oauth1_token_secret is not the app secret. These all should be different strings.
The oauth1_token is the key portion of the OAuth 1 access token. The oauth1_token_secret is the secret portion of the OAuth 1 access token. You would get these from the stored OAuth 1 access tokens you have for users from when your app was using OAuth 1 on API v1. If your app doesn't have stored OAuth 1 access tokens, you shouldn't be using /2/auth/token/from_oauth1.I have to explain my situation...
I used to use SDK's maded to PHP, but with this nes upgrade with the new update this become obsolete.
What the way i can get to migrate my app ?
I think this https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/auth/token/from_oauth1 is the better way to i can finish the migration.
Can you help me ?
- Greg-DBAre you referring to this PHP SDK?
https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-php
That SDK already used OAuth 2, not OAuth 1. If you were using that, you shouldn't have OAuth 1 tokens, so you don't need to use /2/auth/token/from_oauth1. You should just use the existing OAuth 2 access tokens with API v2.
