Dropbox StaffDropbox OAuth 2 authorization codes can each only be used once. (You should just use the authorization code once, but you can store and re-use the resulting access token.)
The "code has already been used" error message should just indicate that the authorization code you're supplying has already been used. I just gave the flow a try and it seems to be working as expected for me.
Can you double check you're not accidentally re-using the authorization code, or perhaps accidentally issuing the /oauth2/token request more than once?
I've learned that my router file was no longer being called. This caused my '/' command to not run and would return that strange error. Now, that I've reconnected my authorization routes, it is running correctly again.
