Cannot link Dropbox business account when using it in docker
Dropbox recently sent an email saying
On October 15, Dropbox is ending support for Ubuntu 13.10 and below, and Fedora 20 and below. You must have glibc 2.19 or higher to continue using the Dropbox desktop application.
To get around this problem, I installed docker and ran Dropbox in a docker container. I used instructions from here. After successfully installing dropbox. I needed to login to my account/link my computer to the dropbox account
The log file from dropbox said to go to
Please visit https://www.dropbox.com/cli_link_nonce?nonce=testingtest to link this device.
However the linked dropbox website asked me to
go back to the Dropbox installer and enter the following link code: resttest
I do not know how to input the code to the dropbox running in the docker container .
Nope.

I use it with Dropbox Business account without issues
The trouble is when you install Dropbox headless with a business account that is configured for single sign-on (SSO).
And as of November 2020, this is still an unresolved issue.
Probably on Business Advanced subscription, I use Dropbox Business with Google Sign-In. I have Dropbox on my MacOS and I have Dropbox CLI on remote server, when I have connected the remote CLI I have clicked on the link and it was linked to my account.
Even if I have Google SSO I have set a password in my Dropbox account.
So the link suggested to link the account does work?
