Auto Login Dropbox account on Core Api without Login Prompt

Question

I am new to iOs development and I\'m creating an app that uses my own dropbox account. I want my app to automatically login to my account to be able to modify & add file

Answer 1

Sorry, I couldn't follow the accepted answer and Greg seems very reluctant to provide example code since Dropbox doesn't recommend using a secret key in this way. For anyone who needs a quick solution to (for example) uploading zip files into a single dropbox account WITHOUT using what I consider the rather opaque dropbox iOS SDK API, the following works (DropboxOAuthKey is the secret key that you press the button to generate in the app console):

NSURLSessionConfiguration *sessionConfiguration = [NSURLSessionConfiguration defaultSessionConfiguration];
sessionConfiguration.HTTPAdditionalHeaders = @{
                                                       @"Authorization" : [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Bearer %@", DropboxOAuthKey],
                                                       @"Content-Type"  : @"application/zip"
                                                       };

NSURLSession *defaultSession = [NSURLSession sessionWithConfiguration: sessionConfiguration delegate: self delegateQueue: [NSOperationQueue mainQueue]];
self.request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://api-content.dropbox.com/1/files_put/auto/%@?overwrite=false",fileName]]];
[self.request setCachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringLocalCacheData];
NSData *data = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] contentsAtPath:zippedPath];
[self.request setHTTPMethod:@"PUT"];
[self.request setHTTPBody:data];
[self.request setTimeoutInterval:1000];

NSURLSessionDataTask *doDataTask = [defaultSession dataTaskWithRequest:self.request completionHandler:^(NSData *data, NSURLResponse *response, NSError *error) {
            if (!error){
                NSLog(@"WORKED!!!!");
            } else {
                NSLog(@"ERROR: %@", error);
            }
        }];

[doDataTask resume];
