    GevorgMel This functionality should now be available on DropboxTeamClient as of release v5.1.0. Please update and give that a try and let us know if you run in to any issues. Thanks!

Yes I am using the appid and appsecret. I'm using the constructor as in the example, with the addition of the access token expiry date:

CurrentClient = new DropboxClient(accessToken, refreshToken, expiryDate, appKey, appSecret, config);

 

The access token returned starts with sl. and is 139 bytes long. The refresh token starts with 1y_ and is 64 bytes long.

Fetching data from the api works up to the expiry date, which was set to 2020-12-09 17:37:48. After that fetching data takes a few minutes (!!) before throwing the exception.
