what am I doing wrong?
Hi Conners,
The only wrong thing you are doing is following the outdated article. "long lived token" can't get issued anymore. Newly issued access tokens are always short lived. 🤷 That's it.
If you want long term access you can consider refresh token usage. 😉
Hope this helps.
Add: why don't you use /2/users/get_current_account instead?
PS: I am actually using in PHP this
$client = new \Spatie\Dropbox\Client();
this documentation doesn't really seem to talk about an example of short life tokens, just talks that there is an object (but no example) so it's all but useless to new users: but it was last updated only a few days ago. Whole situation seems very strange
