3 years agoThanks for following up. Unfortunately it appears the request ID is not actually getting set there for some reason.
Can you confirm if you're performing these calls using an app owned by the Dropbox account you're using to post in the forum here? We can try to look up the failures that way instead.

Hi Greg
Yes I checked - it is from the same account as I am posting from here on the forum.
Thanks for looking into this. Without this functionality working 100% unfortunately I cannot publish my app.

The team is looking into this, but they're asking if you can share a little more context on the failure rate you're seeing. Specifically, you mentioned it "does not work in 80% of the times", but can you offer some more details on that? For instance, are you always seeing an 80% failure rate on these calls, or does it only fail at that rate sometimes?
Also, are you running multiple addFolderMember calls at the same time? (Note that it runs asynchronously.)
Thanks!
