I would like to try to use this package. But I could not figure out from the documentation how to create the required token. It would be great to have this the documentation. Thanks!

Hello!

You need to be connected on your dropbox account and go in the developers/apps dropbox page. Then, you can add a new app, give it full access or just a folder and generate the token. I am sure you already know about that but be careful not to write in plain text your token, neither store it in a git account. You can add it in a config file and upload from it in your python code.

Thank you for your issue ! :) I will add this in the readme documentation.
