Dropbox account for users without creating an app for every user account
I have a Dropbox account and I have created/ registered an app in App Console. Then using the App key/ App secret for the created app and using OAuth process I have stored my access token in my Asp.N...
Yes, now that you've tested out the Dropbox API with you own access token (generated in the App Console), you'll want to set up a login process for your users to each get their own access tokens.
You can use the same app you've created and the same app key and secret. However, each user will need to go through a "connect with Dropbox" style flow to get their own access token, which you can then store in your database.
Check out this OAuth guide for an overview of the process: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/oauth-guide
The .NET SDK also includes methods for authorizing users and storing tokens: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/dotnet
The sample apps include code for authorizing users. Here's an example I found: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/blob/master/Examples/SimpleBlogDemo/Controllers/HomeController.cs#L164
Hope that helps!
