Login form not appear in my xamarin APP
A few days in my android App that uses Dropbox.Api (v. 4.9.4) when OAuth2Authenticator loads the login form, user and password fields are not displayed.
At the moment, I'm able to show the login form correctly using an exthernal browser but I can't intercept the redirect URI, capture the token and use it.
I have tried many solutions, but none of them allow me to complete the authentication phase correctly
About OAuth flow-PKCE version, as you suggested, I have not found sufficient examples or documentation to develop a solution with it.
Can you help me whit this?
Or link some examples in xamarin-android?

Dropbox StaffWe don't have any specific resources or samples for Xamarin in particular unfortunately. I'll pass this along as a feature request but I can't promise if or when that might be implemented.
The authorization flow is covered in the OAuth Guide and authorization documentation though. If something in the Dropbox API/OAuth flow isn't working as expected/documented, please share the details so we can take a look and investigate.
The official Dropbox SDKs come with some working examples, such as for the official .NET and JavaScript SDKs, for instance:
I'm having the same issue. I suspect something changed recently on the way the the Dropbox page is created. This was working awhile back (not sure how long as the tokens were logging it in as expected). After a logout and tried to log back in, the User & Password fields are missing and the page is drawn incorrectly.
Well whatever it was that got broken by DB is now Working again! Out of nowhere the page is now displaying properly. Pfew. 🙂
