V2 API Problem with tokens

I'm getting  error_summary": "invalid_access_token" , all the time , even after getting a fresh new token.

 

I followed these steps:

 

- oauth2/authorize : get the code

- oauth2/token : get the token using the code

- call any method i.e.

 

curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/users/get_current_account --header "Authorization: Bearer R80pqXt4IfAAAAAAAAAFQB-1CY4ADo-4NURztVJ6t3WgwPCKrM"

 

I appreciate any help.

    It looks like you may be accidentally truncating the access token. Dropbox OAuth 2 access tokens are generally 64 characters long, but the one you posted is only 43 characters.
