Hello again all,

 

I have again had some time to spend on this today and I'm a little confused.

 

I have created a folder, this appears in dropbox and is shared with me.

I next add some files and I can see them if i inspect the folder.

However if I attempt to share the folder with another user via email I get the error "bad_path/already_shared/.."

I am just calling the original code that created the folder and then shared it with the first user - me,. How do i add additional users to the share?

Can you share a code sample of your call and the exact (full output) of the error response?
