Is it possible to automate getting the access code?
I tried using selenium to automate but I keep getting captcha which I cant get past it Is there any way of getting past that
curl https://api.dropbox.com/oauth2/token \
-d code=AUTHORIZATIONCODEHERE \
-d grant_type=authorization_code \
-u APPKEYHERE:APPSECRETHEREI tried using this to getting refresh token using this. The json doesnt contain refresh code in it. Is there any settings I need to change

As Здравко mentioned, you'll need to make sure that token_access_type=offline is included in your request to /oauth2/authorize
https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<APP_KEY>&token_access_type=offline&response_type=code
Once that is successful, you should see a refresh_token in the response.
Feel free to reference our OAuth guide for details on refresh tokens.

Hi Vineeth1,
Did you denote offline access in your authorization URL? 🧐 If I have to bet, No. 👈
Take a look on this example. You don't need the last step there, just get the refresh token.
Hope this helps.
