Hey,
I have noticed that 'parent_shared_folder_id' value is optional, so I can't always get the team folder for a namespace (file/folders can be not under team folder on Dropbox for enterprise?)

That's correct, 'parent_shared_folder_id' isn't guaranteed to be set. It is only set if the item is inside a shared/team folder. Some or all of a user's files and folders may just be in their own private folder, and not shared with anyone, in which case 'parent_shared_folder_id' will not be set.
