Re: Suddenly getting "v1_retired" error

It looks like this may be occurring again now when making requests with `grant_type=refresh_token`.

Let me add my voice to the chorus. It's been days and the situation is getting worse. Even without syncing, I get the error. I'm using Maestral.

    Chiming in as another Maestral user. This error started popping up infrequently a few weeks ago and it's been happening more and more often, especially over the past couple days. Today alone it's happening about 3-4 times per hour which is beyond frustrating.
    In addition to happening periodically when I'm personally doing nothing whatsoever with Dropbox, it also occurs nearly every time I add something to my synced folder.

        We are also experiencing this problem. It occurs sporadically from time to time when fetching new oauth2 access token.
