    <title>topic Re: Preparing my App for long-lived tokens deprecation in Dropbox API Support &amp; Feedback</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Long-lived access tokens are now considered deprecated, but 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). Note though that after the change you won't be able to create new long-lived access tokens. That means that any users with existing long-lived access tokens can continue using those existing long-lived access tokens as before.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;After the change, apps will need to use the updated flow to request "offline" access to get long-lived authorization via refresh tokens.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If, after the change, a user uses an app that hasn't been updated, any new authorizations will only receive short-lived access tokens, and they won't be able to newly authorize long-lived access without getting an updated version of the app.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;After reading &lt;A href="https://dropbox.tech/developers/migrating-app-permissions-and-access-tokens" target="_self"&gt;this post&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;I'm facing a similar scenario (also discussed&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/Migrating-to-short-lived-access-tokens/m-p/472597/highlight/true#M24002" target="_self"&gt;here&lt;/A&gt;) regarding migrating my app to short-lived tokens.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;To my understanding, all existing long-lived tokens will&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;still work&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;, &lt;/STRONG&gt;even after Sep. 30 but the option to create new ones will be disabled.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Does that mean that all existing &lt;EM&gt;offline&lt;/EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;access&lt;/EM&gt; apps will still work using both&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;old tokens&lt;/EM&gt; and&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;old authorization&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;implementation? Does it also mean that existing users will not be affected by this transition at all?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks in advance!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/10" target="_self"&gt;@Greg&lt;/A&gt;!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;So in fact, all existing users who are already authenticated (long-lived tokens) will no experience any change, &lt;EM&gt;unless&lt;/EM&gt; they re-authenticate themselves with a new (short-lived) access token.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;That's great news for all of us hoping this upcoming change will not affect existing users but only new ones &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@FBF7D2AB59A0D6E861EBF6A36F93B7E2/emoticons/1f642.png" alt=":slightly_smiling_face:" title=":slightly_smiling_face:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
