Problem with the list folder path to retrieve recursive folders
Im trying out the V2 ApI and I am having some issues to list all the folders and their content. So i managed to curl via terminal using this : curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_...
The "data" you pass up needs to be valid JSON, otherwise the API call will fail with the "could not decode input as JSON" error.
Some of your values are missing pieces such as the opening { or a ,. Also, make sure you use the standard " character, and escape it with a \.
So, here are some valid examples based on what you posted:
--data "{\"path\": \"/hotel_1\"}"
--data "{\"path\": \"/sop_nifi\"}"
--data "{\"path\": \"/sop_nifi\", \"recursive:true\"}"
The API Explorer can be helpful for constructing these curl commands: (click "Show Code")
