List ALL file/folder metadata

Is there a way to list "all" file/folder metadata, not restricted to impersonated member access.

Even team admins may not have visibility to all files/folders using User Endpoint files/list_folders endpoint. 

It looks like the web UI's /team/team_content/get_metadata and related endpoints would suit the need well but access tokens provided with the highest priviledged Dropbox connected apps are not allowed to use that endpoint.

Is there another type of Dropbox connected app I can create that will provide access to /team/team_content/get_metadata?
