Thanks Greg,
"or you can create and use multiple different access tokens" - that would be great!
I use the Java API SDK. Can you tell my how I can get an existing token or generate an additional token? Whenever I creat a "new" token the older token does not working anymore and an "invalid access token" exception is thrown.
This is my code to generate a new token:
public static String doAuth() {
// Only display important log messages.
Logger.getLogger("").setLevel(Level.WARNING);
// Read app info file (contains app key and app secret)
DbxAppInfo appInfo;
appInfo = new DbxAppInfo(APP_KEY, APP_SECRET);
// Run through Dropbox API authorization process
DbxRequestConfig requestConfig = new DbxRequestConfig("foo");
DbxWebAuth webAuth = new DbxWebAuth(requestConfig, appInfo);
DbxWebAuth.Request webAuthRequest = DbxWebAuth.newRequestBuilder()
.withNoRedirect()
.withForceReapprove(Boolean.FALSE)
.build();
String authorizeUrl = webAuth.authorize(webAuthRequest);
System.out.println("1. Go to " + authorizeUrl);
System.out.println("2. Click \"Allow\" (you might have to log in first).");
System.out.println("3. Copy the authorization code.");
System.out.print("Enter the authorization code here: ");
String code = null;
try {
code = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)).readLine();
} catch (IOException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Main.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
if (code == null) {
System.exit(1);
return null;
}
code = code.trim();
DbxAuthFinish authFinish;
try {
authFinish = webAuth.finishFromCode(code);
} catch (DbxException ex) {
System.err.println("Error in DbxWebAuth.authorize: " + ex.getMessage());
System.exit(1);
return null;
}
System.out.println("Authorization complete.");
System.out.println("- User ID: " + authFinish.getUserId());
System.out.println("- Access Token: " + authFinish.getAccessToken());
// Save auth information to output file.
DbxAuthInfo authInfo = new DbxAuthInfo(authFinish.getAccessToken(), appInfo.getHost());
File output = new File("token");
try {
DbxAuthInfo.Writer.writeToFile(authInfo, output);
System.out.println("Saved authorization information to \"" + output.getCanonicalPath() + "\".");
} catch (IOException ex) {
System.err.println("Error saving to <auth-file-out>: " + ex.getMessage());
System.err.println("Dumping to stderr instead:");
try {
DbxAuthInfo.Writer.writeToStream(authInfo, System.err);
} catch (IOException ex1) {
Logger.getLogger(Main.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex1);
}
}
return authFinish.getAccessToken();
}
