    <p>I'm writing a simple Dropbox app in Python that upload/Download files. Here is the particular piece of code that I am working with that creates a connection to a Dropbox account.</p> <pre><code>flow = dropbox.client.DropboxOAuth2FlowNoRedirect(app_key, app_secret) # Have the user sign in and authorize this token authorize_url = flow.start() print '1. Go to: ' + authorize_url print '2. Click "Allow" (you might have to log in first)' print '3. Copy the authorization code.' code = raw_input("Enter the authorization code here: ").strip() # This will fail if the user enters an invalid authorization code access_token, user_id = flow.finish(code) client = dropbox.client.DropboxClient(access_token) print 'linked account: ', client.account_info() f = open('data.txt') response = client.put_file('/magnum-opus.txt', f) print 'uploaded: ', response folder_metadata = client.metadata('/') print 'metadata: ', folder_metadata f, metadata = client.get_file_and_metadata('/magnum-opus.txt') out = open('magnum-opus.txt', 'w') out.write(f.read()) out.close() print metadata </code></pre> <p>It seems to work fine, but I am wary of the way I am checking for authentication. The code above will open a link in the user's default browser to his/her Dropbox account to allow access to this app. But i want to skip these steps and get explicit authorized code. i had read <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/docs#oa2-authorize" rel="nofollow">doc</a> but it does not helps me. Does anyone have any idea how to get this code? </p>

    1. COCould you clarify your question? The only way to call the Dropbox API is to have an OAuth token, which requires that the user authorize your app.

    3. COThat's not possible. A user has to authorize you app before you can access his or her account.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
