1. Dropbox API access tokens don't expire, but they can be revoked by the user or app at any time.
2. API v1 and API v2 both support OAuth 2 access tokens. The access token itself doesn't determine which API you are using. If you are using API v1, you will need to migrate to API v2.
3. No, generating a new access token does not invalidate previous ones.
You can call both API v1 and API v2 at the same time. They don't interfere with each other.
