Strange python API error
I get a strange error when executing the following code-snippet:
sys.path.append('/home/pi/scripts/qr-scripts')
sys.path.append('/home/pi/Raw')
import session_folder
import session_folder_name
response = db.files_list_folder(session_folder_name.sessionFolderName)
for file in response.entries:
This is the error-output
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/pi/scripts/qr-scripts/dropbox_qrcodes_watchdog.py", line 77, in <module>
response = db.files_list_folder(session_folder_name.sessionFolderName)
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/dropbox/base.py", line 715, in files_list_folder
None,
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/dropbox/dropbox.py", line 256, in request
user_message_locale)
dropbox.exceptions.ApiError: ApiError('9f5d41127c911dc312a3938fbe57f464', ListFolderError('path', LookupError('not_found', None)))
I am really not getting the problem... Can anyone help?
I am sorry. Found the mistake. My fault!
I tried to download something from a dropbox-folder, that doesn't yet exist by the time, the script is being executed.

akashjeez The original poster here indicated that the issue was that they were attempting to access the folder before the folder existed.
In general, the 'not_found' error means that the specified path doesn't exist.
If you're having trouble with the API, please open a new thread with the details of the issue.
