api.dropboxapi.com/2/team_log/get_events returns an empty list
calling api.dropboxapi.com/2/team_log/get_events returns an empty list with "has_more": true
{
"events": [],
"cursor": "AABCp00-V60AxTHN5J_Brex8tf5o0w9lXW8zmPz8ZTqZ7wg-1ubg1Skj2s6hyg6VlRyj-iyxGkv5RoTCaPP_kx9VAvRAr5rKAaUSYUFe8529SC28VXIZKCcXb9Lhx9EGfi5Zjkt_pHr_YRzN7-mzpCj4UsA8Wx_HDJC2E2DVGuK2lJx0uYgbVcs98hRRbu4433OuHpjrz5LGJL9O912P5x3Bx6UOfvV8r-GQ6uFJHqOsFiCuuwAWIVsQmLyiOXyfqsO6963Gyro6EUO4q9zTLaafL0ndJflQuN5GS96A_5Dy9GqrGAotyHzXrhhGxWaXYw2ccSBU7dRskmpdDLpmJ_qHqwXL3RNkA_mqWWE9htye3g",
"has_more": true
}
The feature is enabled as api.dropboxapi.com/2/team/features/get_values returns the following as true:
{
"values": [
{
".tag": "has_team_file_events",
"has_team_file_events": {
".tag": "enabled",
"enabled": true
}
},
{
".tag": "has_team_shared_dropbox",
"has_team_shared_dropbox": {
".tag": "has_team_shared_dropbox",
"has_team_shared_dropbox": true
}
}
]
}
When you get 'has_more:true' back from /2/team_log/get_events, you need to call back to /2/team_log/get_events/continue using the returned 'cursor' (and so on). The exact page size for any single response from these endpoints is not guaranteed, so make sure you have that implemented so you can retrieve all of the results, which may take multiple calls.
If something isn't working though, e.g., if you paginate through all of the pages until you get 'has_more:false' but still haven't received the entries, please let me know so we can look into it.

Thanks for the solution, though it is a weird behavior as it took about 7 pages (7 times continue) to get to useful data.
Did you end up figuring this out? I'm having the same issue.

dhyanP It sounds like the original poster here did get this working by iterating through the different result pages as needed and indicated by the 'has_more' value. Please see my earlier comment for more information. Is that not working for you?
