Property group already exists, why?
Hi there!
The reason for the error is pretty clear, but checking shows that no such property has been assigned to the file if we search for this property.
I uploaded a lot of files using this method, and for the first time I got stuck on one such file.
https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/get_metadata
https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/file_properties/properties/search
https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/file_properties/properties/add
Is there something I don't see and don't understand, or is the API returning the wrong thing?

Thanks for your patience while we took a closer look at your report.
As a next step, we would recommend including the 'include_property_groups' parameter in the request to /2/files/get_metadata. This will help confirm if there if there is a property group set on that file and what the values are.
