    Hello cas_rds

    Thank you for raising this case on our Dropbox Community Forum. Based on the cURL command example you provided, it appears that you are encountering the error message, “You aren’t a member of this shared folder,” because you are using the "Dropbox-API-Select-User" HTTP header to execute the endpoint on a team folder with no members.

    To resolve this issue, please use the "Dropbox-API-Select-Admin" HTTP header when executing the endpoint. This will allow you to operate on behalf of the team administrator to add the group to the team folder. For further information, please refer to the following link:
