If you use the SDK and implement the authorization flow as documented, i.e., using authorizeFromControllerV2, the SDK will actually automatically handle the short-lived access token and refresh token logic for you.

Even after the initial short-lived access token expires, the SDK automatically uses the stored refresh token to get a new short-lived access token and then uses that to successfully make further API calls, without having to report 'expired_access_token' back to the app's code.
Did you perhaps process the app authorization flow before switching from authorizeFromController to authorizeFromControllerV2 and so only had a short-lived access token stored, but not a refresh token? You can unlink the client and then re-authorize with authorizeFromControllerV2 in that case.

M Anwar Bajwa A refresh token is not something Dropbox support staff can provide for you. This process is supposed to be built in to the third party app itself. You should reach out to the developer of the third party app you're using for any help with that app.
