    yyyhhh The Dropbox Chooser does not support taking an access token, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though. As Здравко said, it instead just uses the current user's web session on www.dropbox.com.

    Hi yyyhhh,

    To use Dropbox Chooser you don't need additional authentication (including you don't need any access token to work). It will be enough the user (eather you or somebody else) to be logged in in desired Dropbox account, nothing more. 😉

    Hope this helps.
