Well, I decided to create my own app for testing on my own current account.
Permission type - account_info.read - Scoped App
And
print(dbx.users_get_current_account())
works just fine now.
Then I added files.content.write permission and tried my script from the first post and got
Exception has occurred: AuthError
AuthError('1c1aa051ebc4408297c28154348ecaf8', AuthError('missing_scope', TokenScopeError(required_scope='files.content.write')))
File "/home/bazhin/dropbox/dropbox_backup.py", line 15, in upload
upload_session_start_result = self.dbx.files_upload_session_start(f.read(self.CHUNK_SIZE))
File "/home/bazhin/dropbox/dropbox_backup.py", line 54, in <module>
uploader.upload(archive_name, archive_size)
dropbox.exceptions.AuthError: AuthError('1c1aa051ebc4408297c28154348ecaf8', AuthError('missing_scope', TokenScopeError(required_scope='files.content.write')))
But I guess I have to wait for permission update or something, haven't I?
