Shinyapps.io error: Warning: Error in : oauth_listener() needs an interactive environment.

I ran into the same issue, but found a resolution in trying a different authentication method. Instead of stating drop_acc(dtoken = token), explicitly put in the dtoken=your_token as the last parameter in all of your functions. That fixed it for me.

The solution of @rghertner does the trick.

I uploaded an app into shinyapps.io. The uploaded directory contained my .R code and the token that was made running this code token<-drop_auth().

Like @rghertner said, my drop_ functions contains the dtoken=your_token and it is working fine on different computers logged on different dropbox accounts.

But I don't know what this token does, since anyone can access my app and make changes in the specified dropbox directory.

Is there anyway that I can allow access to it only when logged in that account? Or grant access to few accounts?
