Access a user's files from another account


I want to integrate Dropbox to my web app. The idea is that, having a user's mail and password I can access his files and allow him to work with them, all this using APIs. Is this possible, can anyone point me out to an example or explain how can I achieve this, I'm new to Dropbox APIs so if this is to simple to answer please do it anyway. I'm using php.


Solution

  • As said in APAD1's comment this can't be done with out the express user authorization. the oauth will redirect the user to a page and there he will aprove your request to use his data through APIs.
