Research direction

Start with the Data Migration flow in User Settings and the Dropbox OAuth token request reported in the log. Reproduce the 400 invalid_grant response with the stated Nextcloud, PHP, and Dropbox-app setup, then trace where the integration handles the token failure. Done means Dropbox file import works without the reported error.
