Hi zencop731,
😁 Are you sure Madison and you are talking for the same things? It sounds like Madison talks about Dropbox application (no any integration). There is "blue" link (not any button) containing debug info in a text temporary file if application crashes. Most probably Madison invited you to send that information. Did you explain clearly that you don't talk about the official Dropbox application, but for integration you're working on? 🧐
Anyway, since some time (already long time) all access tokens are short lived and expire after some time (typically 4 hours). For long term access you need to drive "offline" access (i.e. refresh token). This token cannot be used in regular API calls (i.e. it's NOT drop in replacement of the access token), but let you regenerate access token ("refresh" it) when it's going to expire or already expired. If you use supported Dropbox SDK, just proper client object initialization is enough (the SDK takes care for the rest), otherwise you need to trace access token validity and refresh it whenever needed. Take a look here for example how OAuth works.
Hope this helps.
