Get shared folder owner id
In the V1 SDK, when you got the list of shared folders using 1/shared_folders there was an owner object containing the uid of the owner of the shared folder. This seems to be missing in V2.
Is there a way for me to get the dropbox user id of the owner of the shared folder?

In API v2, you can find the owner's ID in the response from /2/sharing/list_folder_members[/continue]:

(There are corresponding methods in the official SDKs.)
