    Hi pankajetal,

    Since you can make you script work with access token, does the token that work for you look like the one you assigned above? 🧐😀

    The above "token" is a web address where Dropbox OAuth starts. That's the place where you should redirect user to grant your application access to the data. 😉 You can take a look here for step by step exercise. There 'curl' is in use; I believe you can "translate" it for pawershell use.

    Good luck.
