<p>While Dropbox supports the newer OAuth 2.0, Nextcloud uses OAuth 1.0, so you can
safely ignore any references to OAuth 2.0 in the Dropbox configuration.</p>
<p>Connecting Dropbox is a little more work because you have to create a Dropbox
app. Log into the <a class="reference external" href="http://www.dropbox.com/developers">Dropbox Developers page</a>
and click <strong>Create Your App</strong>:</p>
<div class="figure">
<img alt="Create your app." src="../../_images/dropbox.png" />
</div>
<p>Next, for <strong>Choose an API</strong> check <strong>Dropbox API</strong>.</p>
<div class="figure">
<img alt="Select Dropbox API." src="../../_images/dropbox-1.png" />
</div>
<p>The next option is choosing which folders to share, or to share everything in
your Dropbox.</p>
<div class="figure">
<img alt="Folder selection." src="../../_images/dropbox-2.png" />
</div>
<p>Then enter your app name. This is anything you want it to be.</p>
<div class="figure">
<img alt="Name your app." src="../../_images/dropbox-3.png" />
</div>
<p>Then click the <strong>Create App</strong> button.</p>
<p>Now you are on your app page, which displays its settings and more options. Do
not click <strong>Development (Apply for production)</strong> because that is for apps
that you want to release publicly.</p>
<div class="figure">
<img alt="Your app's page." src="../../_images/dropbox-4.png" />
</div>
<p>Click <strong>Enable additional users</strong> to allow multiple Nextcloud users to access
your new Dropbox share.</p>
<p>Now go to your Nextcloud Admin page. Your Nextcloud configuration requires only
the local mount name, the <strong>App Key</strong> and the <strong>App Secret</strong>, and which users
or groups have access to the share. Remember the little gear icon at the
far right for additional options.</p>
<p>After entering your local mount name, <strong>App Key</strong> and <strong>App Secret</strong>, click
<strong>Grant access</strong>.</p>
<div class="figure">
<img alt="Nextcloud Dropbox configuration." src="../../_images/dropbox-6.png" />
</div>
<p>If you are not already logged into Dropbox, you will be prompted to login
and authorize access. This happens only once, when you are first creating
the new share. Click <strong>Allow</strong>, and you’re done.</p>
