Frustrated trying to link Dropbox and an app called Easy Attendance for classroom attendance taking.

I am frustrated trying to link Dropbox and an app called Easy Attendance for classroom attendance taking. You are supposed to be able to link the accounts and upload a dropbox .csv file to use in EA. This is on two ipads. It worked sucessfully for a short period. Now I am gettting an error about a access token being expired.  I have tried all kinds of settings in app and dropbox with no luck. Please advise.

    It sounds like the developers never updated their app to use the new short-lived and refresh access tokens. Dropbox no longer issues long-live access tokens for apps. You'll need to contact the developers of the app and ask them to update it.
