get email addresses of members of your shared_folders
According to documentation, you can get a list of members on a shared folder with https://api.dropbox.com/1/shared_folders/<id>
and the response will contain:
"members": [
{
"user": {
"uid": 87654321,
"display_name": "Jane P. User",
"same_team": true,
"member_id": "dbmid:abcd1234"
},
"role": "owner",
"active": true
},
...
Is there any way to determine the email address of that user? (eg- from the uid for that user) Note that this is information that is available to the folder owner via the Dropbox web interface.

Hi Gregory,
I'm building in swift and it seems SwiftyDropbox is only capable of accessing API v1. Since I want to get users email addresses, is there a way to revert to API v1 so that this is possible?

Thanks!

Hi Julian, I imagine that's a typo and you meant to say that "SwiftyDropbox is only capable of accessing API v2".
Anyway, it's not possible to use SwiftyDropbox to access API v1.
If you wanted to though, you could technically use API v1, either via the HTTP endpoints, or the iOS Core SDK. Note that API v1 is deprecated though, so that's not recommended.
Hi Gregory, thanks, yea that's what I meant.
Is there a plan to make getting emails from folder members available for API v2? If so, by when?
Thanks!
- Greg-DB
Unfortunately I don't know if/when this may be added to API v2.
