Support the old drobox and the new under same application
Hi guys, my app is trying to support the old drobox and the new under then same client . after getting the auth tokens we are creating a new DropboxTeamClient(request.AccessToken); then w...
Omri1984 Здравко is correct; the SDK can handle the refresh process for you automatically, but you need to supply the refresh token, and app key, and if not using PKCE, the app secret. In your code, you're only supplying an access token.
You can find an example of getting and using a refresh token in the OauthBasic example (non-PKCE, meant for server-side apps) as well as in the OAuthPKCE example (PKCE, meant for client-side apps).
Hi Omri1984,
Yes, when refresh token is in use (as a client constructor argument), the client automatically refresh access token whenever needed. In your code no any refresh token can be seen. 🤔 (or I'm missing something) Just do what you are saying. 😉 Follow the your own "answer".
Good luck.
i am using the NET SDK soafter open a different ticket i asked if i will need to refresh the token and the answer i got is above,
so i need to call the method anyway just in case the token should be refreshed?
like this
new DropboxTeamClient(request.AccessToken);
var account = await client.AsMember(request.AsMember).Users.GetCurrentAccountAsync();
var spaceclient = client.AsMember(request.AsMember).WithPathRoot(new PathRoot.Root(account.RootInfo.RootNamespaceId));
client.RefreshAccessToken(null);
or need to call the refresh token if an AUTH exception is thrown or do I need to do it before every request?
