    You are awesome !

    Thanks the guidance.

  • The reauthorizeClient method would set the authorizedClient to use an access token that's already been stored. If you haven't stored the relevant access token, then that won't work. (The built-in OAuth functionality would automatically store the access token, but that won't occur automatically if you copied it from another device.)

     

    To store an access token, you can use DropboxOAuthManager storeAccessToken, and then use reauthorizeClient.

        I don't believe we have example code for using that. Perhaps you could share the relevant piece of code you have so far and show what you're stuck on (e.g., any unexpected error/output)? Be sure to redact any actual access/refresh tokens though.
