Hi Reshma ,

You can't actually. As you can see here:

---

Templates are owned either by a user/app pair or team/app pair. Templates and their associated properties can't be accessed by any app other than the app that created them, and even then, only when the app is linked with the owner of the template (either a user or team).

I'm getting success response(200 ok) in the api response.

But how to see the template and added file properties in the Dropbox web app . ...

As mentioned above you can't. Those properties are strictly related to the User(Team)/App pair. 🙂 Dropbox Web app is NOT the your application!

While use any API call (either directly or through SDK) where result contains metadata, you're able see those properties where associated to particular file. Properties change can be performed using any file change (upload) call. (in addition to properties specific calls)

There is no such (exact use). That's an option you can associate a file with application specific properties, if that can be useful for you (your application). Something like tagging files with application specific set(s) of tags whenever appropriate. 😉 That's it.

Hope this helps.
