If you're using Node.js and need to interact with the Dropbox API, we recommend using the official Dropbox API v2 JavaScript SDK, which supports Node.js. You can find sample code for that here.
Note though that you should not be sharing access tokens with other users. The API was designed with the intention that each user would link their own Dropbox account, receiving their own access token(s), in order to interact with their own files. While it is technically possible to share an access token and always connect to just one account for all users, we do not officially support this, for various technical and security reasons.

For information on how apps can use the OAuth app authorization flow to have end-users authorize an app to access their accounts, please read the OAuth Guide.
To see how to use the JavaScript SDK for this, check out the examples included with the SDK.
