We need Long-live access token
Please Help ...

Please ...Help Me
We Need long-live token.
msmoe Здравко is correct, Dropbox is no longer offering the option for creating new long-lived access tokens. Dropbox is switching to only issuing short-lived access tokens (and optional refresh tokens) instead of long-lived access tokens. You can find more information on this migration here.
Apps can still get long-term access by requesting "offline" access though, in which case the app receives a "refresh token" that can be used to retrieve new short-lived access tokens as needed, without further manual user intervention. You can find more information in the OAuth Guide and authorization documentation.
For reference, while the creation of new long-lived access tokens is now deprecated, we don't currently have a plan to disable existing long-lived access tokens. (If that changes, we will of course announce that ahead of time.) That being the case, you can continue using existing long-lived access token(s) without interruption, if you have any. Also, note though that after the change you won't be able to create new long-lived access tokens.
While the change began on September 30th 2021, we released it gradually, so you may not have seen your app(s) affected until more recently. Once it applies to your app, it would apply regardless of the "Access token expiration" setting for your app, and that setting may no longer be available for your app.
Note that this is something that would need to be implemented by the programmer of the app though, so if you are not the programmer responsible for this integration, you may need to get an update from them to support this.

Hi msmoe,
This means the file has been uploaded incorrectly. Do you able see the same file using the web interface of your account? Is there some content? How have you uploaded it; using web interface, locally installed Dropbox application, or API (in your application)?
Hi Здравко
I used dropbox http method in laravel. And The file goes into the app.
The response I got is the same as the response in the Documentation.
In Here
Me uploaded Code below!
$filename = $request->file('video')->getClientOriginalName();if($request->hasFile('video')){$args = array("autorename"=> false,"mode"=> "overwrite","mute"=> false,'path' => '/'.'video'.'/'.$filename,);$client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();'headers' => ['authorization' => "Bearer {$this->getToken()}",'Content-Type'=> 'application/octet-stream','Dropbox-API-Arg' => json_encode($args)],'data-binary'=>$filename,]);below my app figure
Its OK,sir.
But
When I click on the link in the response and download, the resulting file cannot be opened.
And Size is 0 . Why?
Please explain Sir.
Thank.
Hi msmoe,
Seems you haven't read your tooling documentation. What is:
msmoe wrote:...'headers' => ['authorization' => "Bearer {$this->getToken()}",'Content-Type'=> 'application/octet-stream','Dropbox-API-Arg' => json_encode($args)],'data-binary'=>$filename,]);...
... this 'data-binary'?! 🤔 Can you point out to the place where this is described? After that, you need to post your file content, not the file name!!! Even if your call would successful, the resulted file's gonna contain only the file name; nothing more. Since the request body is completely empty now, the file is empty too. 🙂 Take a bit more care; rely on check and error only when you don't have any documentation.
Hope this gives direction.
