How to get OAuth2 access token from OAuth1 token and secret with API v2
hi,
While creating an OAuth2 access token from OAuth1, I am getting error saying
Error in call to API function "auth/token/from_oauth1": Invalid value in HTTP header "Authorization": "Be...
Apologies for the confusion. The curl example in the documentation and API Explorer for /2/auth/token/from_oauth1 are unfortunately incorrect. I'll let the team know to fix that.
That endpoint actually uses app authentication ( https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/auth-types#app ), so a bearer access token isn't necessary. This is what the curl example should look like:curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/auth/token/from_oauth1 \ -u "APP_KEY:APP_SECRET" \ --header "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data "{\"oauth1_token\": \"OAUTH1_TOKEN_KEY\",\"oauth1_token_secret\": \"OAUTH1_TOKEN_SECRET\"}"
ok thanks,
Could you help me with this endpoint :
curl https://api.dropbox.com/oauth2/token \ -d code=<AUTHORIZATION_CODE> \ -d grant_type=authorization_code \ -d redirect_uri=<REDIRECT_URI> \ -u <APP_KEY>:<APP_SECRET>
what we given in the <Authorization code>
and what we keep in the grant_type.because i couldn't find out what those parameter to be set and got the proper response.
I resolved it..Thanks
- Hi rishutiwari, Glad to hear about U resolved it. Could you please tell me how to deal with the 4XX error while using new end point "https://api.dropboxapi.com/oauth2/token". That would be really helpful. Thank you.
