Hi again lalith-mcw,
I just tried it out and it's working for me. Are you certainly passed the refresh token to and not something else? 🧐 Also to work correctly, the app key must match to the refresh token (for PKCE app secret is optional, but when given must be correct and matching too).
You can check if your params are correct using following command line:
curl https://api.dropbox.com/oauth2/token -d grant_type=refresh_token -d refresh_token=<YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN_HERE> -d client_id=<YOUR_APP_KEY_HERE>
Replace <YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN_HERE> to the content of refresh_token var and <YOUR_APP_KEY_HERE> to the content of key var from your code. If everything is correct you will get back something like:
{"access_token":"sl.AbX9y6...","expires_in":14400,"token_type":"bearer"}
Otherwise, you will get appropriate error message and should fix whatever needed.
Good luck.
Add: You can get as working example one my earlier post here.

Hi lalith-mcw,
Haha.. 😀 You just found out a imperfection in Dropbox Python SDK. It doesn't make distinct between access token and refresh token. As seems your refresh token is invalid for some reason, but according to the message, you received, the access token became guilty (token that doesn't exist yet). 😁 Just imperfection in error formatting.
Anyway, check your refresh token validity. 😉
Hope this gives direction.
