Owner account of shared folder

Thanks!

I have the Dropbox.Api package installed to serve other tasks. Could this be used to retrieve the account_id? I can retrieve the folder metadata but this seems not to include the account_id.

Hi GustavBrock,

In order to further assist, could you provide the following?

• the name and version number of the platform and SDK/library you are using, if any
• the steps to reproduce the issue, including relevant code snippet(s), but don't include any access or refresh token(s)
• the full text of any error or unexpected output 

It is 7.0.0

I got it working. The https call responded with a missing scope error, because I hadn't set permission for sharing_read. That I did and reauthorized, and now also the Dropbox.Api code runs:

internal async Task ListFiles(DropboxClient dbx)
{
    List<Metadata> allFolders = new List<Metadata>();

    // <snip> .. fill allFolders

    foreach (var item in allFolders)
    {
        if (item.IsFolder)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"{item.AsFolder.Id} - {item.Name}");

            string sharedFolderId = item.AsFolder.SharingInfo.SharedFolderId;
            var folderMembers = await dbx.Sharing.ListFolderMembersAsync(sharedFolderId);
            var owner = folderMembers.Users.Where(user => user.AccessType.IsOwner).FirstOrDefault();
            if (owner != null)
            {
                Console.WriteLine($"Owner Account ID: {owner.User.AccountId}");
            }
            else
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Owner not found.");
            }
        }
    }
}

Thank you. Have a nice weekend!

DB-Des: I forgot to return a thank you for your fast attention. Much appreciated!

GustavBrock,

My pleasure! I'm glad to see you got it working.
