Does Dropbox support OAuth 2.0 Device Authorization Grant?

Does Dropbox support OAuth 2.0 Device Authorization Grant?

I'm looking to develop an application utilizing OAuth 2.0 authentication protocol, which I know Dropbox supports. However, the application will be running on a device without a web browser, so the OAuth 2.0 Device Authorization Grant protocol must be followed. I am wanting to know whether Dropbox supports this work flow, and if so where I might find more documentation on the subject (all documentation regarding authentication I've found thus far assumes the presence of a web browser on device). Thanks for the help.

No, Dropbox doesn't support the device flow, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

Two years later, any fresher visibility into whether/when this has made the roadmap?

@mkozlows No, unfortunately I don't have any news on this.
