vas92 As Здравко mentioned, it sounds like you have one or more "team" scopes enabled on the app you're attempting to connect. The "team" scopes enable access to Dropbox team-specific functionality, and so can only be authorized by Dropbox team admins. If your account is not on a Dropbox team, you won't be able to authorize an app with team scopes and will instead receive such an error.
You can modify the scopes enabled for your app on the app's page on the App Console.

Hi vas92,
Seems you are trying to link team scoped application to non team account (personal account). 😜 That's the your problem.

Have you changed something in your application' scopes in meantime (added some team scopes by any chance, including unintentionally)? 🧐 If you want to use team scopes, you need to use team account (including for test), unfortunately. There are some feature requests about possibility to test team application on individual account, but no any move by Dropbox yet. 🤷
Hope this clarifies matter.
