Long time registered app not allowing Oauth authentication.
Anyone know why all of a sudden a dropbox registered app that's been working fine for years would suddenly show
{"error": "invalid_scope", "error_description": "Non-scoped apps cannot specify token...

From your description, it sounds like you have a legacy non-scoped app from before we switched to registering new apps as scoped apps.
We recently fixed a bug where the API would allow non-scoped apps to specify scopes using the 'scope' parameter when calling /oauth2/token with 'grant_type=refresh_token'. Scopes don't apply to non-scoped apps so this is supposed to be rejected with the error you're seeing.
To correct this, you should either:
- not provide the 'scope' parameter when calling /oauth2/token for the non-scoped app, or
- migrate your non-scoped app to use scopes, which you can do using the "Permissions" tab of the app's page on the App Console.
Option b would be preferred. You can find more information on the migration here.
Hi Daniel G.70,
As can be seen from the error message, you're trying scopes on no scoped application! 🙋 Why? 🤔 Try to remove the last part (representing the scopes) from the request payload. Or register a new scoped application and start anew.
Hope this helps.
