    Thanks for your reply.
    I discovered the problem. In my scenario the folder contained some members and some invitees.
    When I called ListFolderMembersAsync I checked inside only the Users but not the Invitees.

    Thanks for your assistance

Using the ListFolderMembersAsync and ListFolderMembersContinueAsync methods should let you list all of the members of a shared folder, whether or not they are also members of the same team as you.

Note though that this list is paginated, and you're not guaranteed to get all results back on one page. If the returned SharedFolderMembers.Cursor is present, you need to call back to ListFolderMembersContinueAsync to retrieve more results. 

Are you checking SharedFolderMembers.Cursor? If not, please add that to your implementation.

If you are already checking that and it's not present in this case, please let me know so we can look into it further.
