OAuth Documentation Incomplete

I submitted an OAuth request using the format from this page:

 

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#oauth2-authorize 

 

It was in this format:

 

https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<APP_KEY>&response_type=code  

 

Obviously, I had my actual app key filled in.  However, I got this response:

 Error (400)

It seems the app you were using submitted a bad request. If you would like to report this error to the app's developer, include the information below.


More details for developers

`team_data.member` scope is required.

 

There is no documentation about the team_data.member parameter.

    The "team_data.member" scope is one of the team scopes available on the Permissions tab of an app's page on the App Console.

     

    There's currently a bug on our side with this configuration causing this issue though. We're looking into and I'll follow up here once I have an update on that.

      When is this bug going to be fixed?  It has been weeks and we need to work on our Dropbox integration.

        I don't have an update on this yet. I'll follow here once I do.

         

        For reference though, if you don't need it, you can work around this by disabling the 'files.permanent_delete' scope for your app on the App Console.
