How to configure Dropbox repo on Moodle 4? Moodle docs not accurate

Hi,

I was trying do configure dropbox repository on Moodle 4, but I noticed that now there is no "Dropbox API key" nor "Dropbox secret" form fields on settings page. There is only an Oauth2 field with no documentation associated and It seems that Moodle docs page is not accurate because the screenshots still show these fields.
Can anyone guide me in the right direction on how to configure dropbox? Should we create a manual Oauth2 authentication for dropbox?

Thank you.
Best,
susana

Hi,
I figured this out, you should follow these steps(4.1 version):

  • First, go to Administration->server->OAuth 2 services
    then, create a 'Custom' service(Service provider setup instructions).
  • After Dropbox service is defined, go to:
    Administration->Plugins->Repositories->Manage repositories
    and choose 'Enabled and visibile' next to 'Dropbox' option.
  • Click on 'Settings' and then on OAuth 2 service dropdown choose the name you defined earlier
