OAuth2 token with iOS SDK
Hello,
I'm currently migrating one of my iOS app to the V2 of the API.
When a user authorize my app to use its Dropbox account I want to retrieve the OAuth2 token to share it with my server...
Hi, it sounds like you're using the official API v2 Objective-C SDK. Is that correct? If so, the SDK handles the access token retrieval and storage for you, regardless of which flow exactly was used (e.g., via app or web). If you're using that SDK, you should just implement the authorization flow as documented here.
That will automatically store the token, and you can then retrieve the client via DBClientsManager authorizedClient. That is, you don't need to check the URL parameters yourself.
If you then do want to retrieve the access token(s) themselves, you can use DBOAuthManager.getAccessToken or DBOAuthManager.getAllAccessTokens.
Thanks, that works perfectly!
