      <description>&lt;P&gt;I would like to know if it is possible to perform the authentication process without the need for user interaction. From what I understand I could embed the token directly but it expires. It is with the objective of making an automated tool&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It is not possible to fully automate the OAuth process where the user chooses to authorize the app and the app then receives the resulting access token and optional refresh token. This needs to be done manually by the user at least once.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;If your app needs to maintain long-term access without the user manually re-authorizing it repeatedly, the app should request "offline" access so that it gets a refresh token. The refresh token doesn't expire and can be stored and used repeatedly to get new short-lived access tokens whenever needed, without the user manually reauthorizing the app.&lt;BR /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR /&gt;You can find more information in the &lt;A href="https://developers.dropbox.com/oauth-guide" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;OAuth Guide&lt;/A&gt; and &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#authorization" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;authorization documentation&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
