webhooks notification
we have reviced the notification json format, but how can get actual file chnages.
When you first store the access tokens and cursors in your app (e.g., in your database), you should record which Dropbox account ID each one belongs to. (For any given access token, you can use /2/users/get_current_account to check the account ID, which just needs to be done once each.)
Then, when you get the webhook notification, you can use the account ID to look up the corresponding access token and cursor.

Dropbox Community ModeratorTo clarify, are you calling /2/files/list_folder/get_latest_cursor before or after you received the webhook notification?
The order should look like this:
- Call /2/files/list_folder/get_latest_cursor to get the latest cursor for the account using the access token for the account and save the returned cursor.
- Make changes in the account.
- Receive the webhook notification from Dropbox for the account.
- Call /2/files/list_folder/continue using the cursor received in step 1 and the same access token.

Thanks for the response Greg
Can i use GetAccount API , i got the response dbId for reciving notification and pass the parameter dbId into GetAccount API so getting the response for particular user???

You can technically use /2/users/get_account to look up the account information for a particular account based on an account ID, but for the sake of efficiency I recommend instead recording the information initially as described in my previous comment.
