Dear Team,
Thank you for your reply. On my system, if dropbox desktop app is already logged in, is there any way to create document link using code without login or can I get new access token using any api without asking credential from user.

harshatupwork As Здравко mentioned, there are some command line options for communicating directly with the Dropbox desktop client on Linux only. You can find the information for that here.

 

Otherwise, you'll need to use the API and authorization flow as documented in the resources in my previous message in this thread.
