Error (400) when open dropbox (request URL)
Hello,
I found a problem when trying to request URL.
I have two apps in dropbox:
1. App 1 (status=production), use Permission type = Full Dropbox
2. App 2 (status=development), use P...
Yes, Dropbox is in process of migrating all apps to use scopes. This is a backwards compatible migration; scoped apps can use all of the same functionality as non-scoped apps. Scopes just offer more granularity in the control over which functionality you enable for the app. You can find more information on the migration in this blog post.

Dropbox StaffYou can only specify 'scopes' when using an app that is registered as a "scoped" app. Your app 1 is not scoped, so you can't specify scopes for it. You should migrate it to be a scoped app via the "Permissions" tab of the app's page on the App Console.
Is this an obligation to migrate from "full dropbox" into "scoped app"?

Thank you Greg-DB
I have a question again.
After migration, there are two scopes; individual scopes and teams scopes.
My application already selects individual scope automatically.
But I don't know what is team scope, why is there a difference between team and individual?
- Greg-DB
Individual scopes enable access to functionality relevant to any account. Team scopes enable access to functionality specific to Business teams only. Team scopes can only be authorized by team admins. You can see which scope is required for each endpoint in the API documentation, e.g., for the user endpoints, which require individual scopes, and for the Business endpoints, which require team scopes.
