When using sharing_add_folder_member, you specify the people to invite via the 'members' parameter, which expects a list of AddMember. (Apologies the type isn't more clearly shown there. We'll make a note of that.)

member_selector = dropbox.sharing.MemberSelector.email("user@example.com") add_member = dropbox.sharing.AddMember(member_selector) members = [add_member] # this can contain more than one member to add res = dbx.sharing_add_folder_member(shared_folder_id, members)Hope this helps!
