Re: OAuth Documentation Incomplete

OAuth Documentation Incomplete

Explorer | Level 3

I submitted an OAuth request using the format from this page:

 

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#oauth2-authorize 

 

It was in this format:

 

https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<APP_KEY>&response_type=code  

 

Obviously, I had my actual app key filled in.  However, I got this response:

 Error (400)

It seems the app you were using submitted a bad request. If you would like to report this error to the app's developer, include the information below.


More details for developers

`team_data.member` scope is required.

 

There is no documentation about the team_data.member parameter.

The "team_data.member" scope is one of the team scopes available on the Permissions tab of an app's page on the App Console.

 

There's currently a bug on our side with this configuration causing this issue though. We're looking into and I'll follow up here once I have an update on that.

When is this bug going to be fixed?  It has been weeks and we need to work on our Dropbox integration.

I don't have an update on this yet. I'll follow here once I do.

 

For reference though, if you don't need it, you can work around this by disabling the 'files.permanent_delete' scope for your app on the App Console.

Thanks for reporting this issue. This issue has now been addressed.

 

To resolve this issue, please now disable and then re-enable the files.permanent_delete scope and then click "Submit" for any affected apps(s) on the "Permissions" tab for the app on the App Console. If you do not need the files.permanent_delete scope, you should leave it disabled.

 

Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused, and thanks again for bringing this to our attention.
