getting changes after Webhook
Hello devs,
I am having an issue getting changes to files [after changing to a business account]
Before I was using the `files/list_folder` endpoint.
But now I can't seem to get ...
Hi webrobert,
First of all, using list_folder alone, will never get the changes alone! Is this ever worked (on any account type)? I don't think so.
You need to keep the last cursor cached and when some change comes in, you can "continue" with changes only. 😉

Did you set your root namespace? 🤔 I can't see such things in the code you posted. Account root space and the home space coincide for personal account and for team account without spaces, but are different things when you're using team spaces. If not set explicitly, the home space is in use.
Hope this gives direction.
@Здравко, legend. Thank you. Root name space. did it.
Yes, cache and go. Here is my Laravel solution using listFolderContinue() to retrieve or create a cache of the cursor.
public function listFolderContinue()
{
$cursor = cache()->rememberForever('dropbox_stores_cursor', function () {
return $this->listFolder()['cursor'];
});
$response = Http::withToken(cache()->get('dropbox_token'))
->withHeaders([
'Dropbox-API-Select-Admin' => '<member_id>',
'Dropbox-API-Path-Root' => '{".tag": "root", "root": "<id_of_root>"}'
])
->post('https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder/continue', compact('cursor'))
->json();
if ($response['cursor']) {
cache()->put('dropbox_stores_cursor', $response['cursor']);
}
return $response;
}
public function listFolder()
{
return Http::withToken(cache()->get('dropbox_token'))
->withHeaders([
'Dropbox-API-Select-Admin' => '<member_id>',
'Dropbox-API-Path-Root' => '{".tag": "root", "root": "<id_of_root>"}'
])
->post('https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder', [
'include_deleted' => true,
'include_has_explicit_shared_members' => false,
'include_non_downloadable_files' => false,
'path' => '/Stores',
'recursive' => true
])
->json();
}
