It sounds like you're referring to handling a migration to the updated team space. For information on how to work with this on the Dropbox API, please refer to the following resources:

In particular, if you want to upload to the team space, for instance, you should get the current root namespace ID for the connected account from /2/users/get_current_account (or corresponding native method in a Dropbox SDK) and use that as the "root" in the Dropbox-API-Path-Root header.
