Can't get token on local PC when "rclone authorize "dropbox" "

Help and Support

What browser are you using?
Did you set the proxy in that browser?

Rclone is just launching a link that opens up in your browser so if your browser can't hit dropbox.com, it won't work.

I set proxy global in the whole windows system, and check the ip address in https://www.ip138.com/ and https://whatismyipaddress.com/ , they show that I'm useing my proxy's ip.
I usually use Firefox, also I have tried Edge, they can hit dropbox.com,
both of them can visit the page
https://www.dropbox.com/1/oauth2/authorize?client_id=5jcck7diasz0rqy&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A53682%2F&response_type=code&scope=files.metadata.write+files.content.write+files.content.read+sharing.write+account_info.read&state=LBlntQamWeZZBqI5ZXRfZA&token_access_type=offline,

and jump to the following page after I click the “Allow” button.
http://localhost:53682/?state=LBlntQamWeZZBqI5ZXRfZA&code=6R8CGTn2poIAAAAAAAAAUCTkFwOwGVPM9Sv6IBJRhkc
but don't return token on windows powershell.

I set proxy global, but I'm not sure if the proxy software has some hidden proxy rules. What will the browser connect after I click the “Allow” button on the page, maybe I can test it

Similar to this process, there's no problem when authorizing “onedrive”

Got the same problem. No problem with OneDrive either, just Dropbox.

hi,
i am able to run rclone authorize dropbox -vv and get the token.

  • windows 11
  • mullvad vpn which offers a socks5 proxy server using 10.8.0.1:1080
  • firefox, hardcoded the proxy server into firefox GUI

hello and welcome to the forum,

without any details, cannot be sure what exact problem you are experiencing

can you post

  • config file, redact id/secret/token/password
  • rclone command
  • rclone debug log
  • output of rclone version
