Dropbox API returning obfuscated data
I am using the Dropbox API to programmatically pull Team events. Certain fields are coming back anonymized, such as source IP address and user email.
I created an app for accessing the API and gave it the following permissions:
- account_info.read
- team_data.member
- events.read
Do I need to enable an additional permission to enable non-obfuscated data? Or is this how Dropbox API always returns certain fields?
For the sake of privacy, some fields for some events are redacted like that. This is not a matter of your app's permissions and cannot be unredacted.
