Dropbox Community ModeratorDropbox API access tokens don't automatically expire, but there are a few ways they can be revoked:
- by the user via https://www.dropbox.com/account/security
- by the user deleting the app folder (if the app uses the app folder permission)
- by the app calling /disable_access_token ( https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/docs#disable-token )
If none of these apply to your scenario, it's possible the access token string is getting altered somehow on your side. Have you tried logging out the access token both where it does work (i.e., when you first get it and use it with the HTTP API) and later when it doesn't work (i.e., when you try to use it with the Java SDK)?
