get email addresses of members of your shared_folders

This is something we're actively considering adding.

Steve, after 4 months of consideration, can you provide the community and update please?

Thanks for checking on this. Unfortunately, I don't have any update yet. It's still something under active consideration.

Hi Steve,

I am also looking for exactly same information. I need email_address of members of a shared_folder.

Is this still under consideration?

Thanks,

Manish

Yes, this is still under consideration.

No updates, sorry.

Any updates?

Yes, email address is available via /shared_folders in the Core API:

That's quite helpful... thanks!  But I notice this in the documentation:

• The membership field only contains users who have joined the shared folder and does not include users who have been invited but have not accepted.

The major goal I had for this feature was to write a script to report on the sharing of a large number of folders among many users.  For proper data security, I want to be able to ascertain anybody who might have access to a folder, even if they have not yet accepted an old invitation.

I can see how, prior to acceptance of the invite, your system wouldn't treat it as a user account linked to the folder, but instead simply an email address that was invited (and the act of inviting someone maybe shouldn't expose their name and uid to me prior to acceptance); but for thoroughness it would be good to be able to retrieve the listing of pending invites in the same shared_folders call, maybe under a different array called something like "pending_invitees" or some such thing containing just email addresses.  This information is, after all, visible in the Dropbox web UI (along with the ability to retract or resend an invitation).
