I can't offer much help for the DropNet library itself since we didn't make it, so you should refer to the documentation/support for that for information on how you process the app authorization flow in it to get and set the access token. It looks like the documentation is here.

Note that the API doesn't offer any calls for managing shared folders though, so you won't be able to do that programmatically. However, if you'd be interested in potentially participating in a shared folder API beta in the future, please sign up here.
