Maybe you have something in your application that you have done and want to improve.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Access tokens are short lived and if you want long term access you have to manage refresh token, if that's what you ask for. A simple example can be seen &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/Issue-in-generating-access-token/m-p/592921/highlight/true#M27586" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;here&lt;/A&gt;. If you're using official SDK, you don't need to implement the last step there (the refreshing); it's implemented by Dropbox and you only need to pass the refresh token (and application key/secret of course).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hope this gives direction.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
