Dropbox Community ModeratorI'll be happy to help with any issues you're having with the Dropbox API, but I'll need some more information. Please reply with:
- the name and version number of the SDK/library you are using, if any
- the steps to reproduce the issue, including relevant code snippet(s), but don't include any access or refresh token(s)
So how many years later, finally got an answer to this odd behavior.
In short, the issue for "not found" does not really give you much to go on. Specially when you know the files exist (cuz your own code put it there in the test). The problem was/is the user account. Accounts can have their 'sharing' feature disabled due to whatever reasons, unfofrtunately the API just gets a NOT_FOUND type message, with no further information, the web hooks seem to have access to more info, maybe the api's do as well or maybe there's an additional info lookup on such things, but for now I'm saying this 'bug' is resolved.
