Re: "Generated access token" button not working

"Generated access token" button not working

Ganesh Sivam

Hi,
Working on Development/ Team member management app where from "App Console" UI, I am unable to retrieve access_token when click on "Generated access token" button. Is there an issue while retrieving access_token by Dropbox or Am I missing anything?

Thanks
GS

Sorry, this is a known issue. That button is not working for Dropbox for Business apps right now. We're working on enabling it soon (hopefully this week), at which point you'll be able to generate an access token if you're an admin for a Dropbox for Business team.

In the meantime, you'll need to use the standard OAuth 2 flow. These resources may help if you just want to get started quickly: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/blog/45/using-oauth-20-with-the-core-api or https://dbxoauth2.site44.com.

Thanks Steve!
Is there any wiki that list known issues? That helps.

No, sorry. But the forum here is a good place to look for that sort of thing. (This is just the first post about it here.)

Need more support?
