You just need to create the ScopeRequest object before calling the authorizeFromControllerV2 method.
As for the error, make sure you're only calling the authorizeFromControllerV2 method once.

Are you also calling an authorize method from inside "openDropboxAutorization" by any chance?

At what moment should I create a ScopeRequest object?
I try to do this in the Action of the Login button, but at the time of authorization after clicking Alloy, I receive an Error: Optional("Auth flow failed because of inconsistent state.")
