Hi candelacorpacci,

 

In order to see the folder of an app with "Permission type: App folder" within a user's Dropbox account, the user would need to go through the authorization flow. Meaning, the user needs to authorize the app first. Once authorization has been successful, the app's folder will be visible in that user's Dropbox (in the /apps folder).

 

I hope this information is helpful!
