Using refresh token you don't need to authorize by hand again and again. Once existing short lived access token expires, it can be automatically "refreshed". If you are using some supported SDK, the only thing you have to do is adapt your application to work with refresh token. The SDK will take care for the rest. If you are performing API calls direct, you should implement some refresh logic in your application.

      <title>How to I generate access_token via API to check my own dropbox file's metadata?</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi there, my use case is the following:&lt;BR /&gt;(1) Generate a token for Dropbox API to access some metadata for my file (I am interested in whether a mission critical file is synced recently, thus the "server_modified" timestamp);&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;(2) Use this token to get the timestamp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Currently I can have only "short lived" token which expired, or other ways that seems manual click / user authorization is needed each time I access my own file programmatically.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Any thoughts?&lt;/P&gt;</description>
