Not able to get team folders or files using python sdk
Python SDK, Not Able to get files and folders where I'm using dropbox business API access token
output = dbx.DropboxTeam(_dropbox_token).as_admin(ng_member_id).files_list_folder("").entries ...
What is the value of your '_team_name_space_id' variable?
Based on the error output you shared, if you want to list the contents of the team space, you should set your '_team_name_space_id' variable to "5632093280".
output = dropbox.DropboxTeam(TOKEN).with_path_root(dropbox.common.PathRoot.root(team_space_namespace_id)).as_admin(member_id).files_list_folder("").entries
what is the team_space_namespace_id here? I use a 10-digit number

Hi mukesh111,
Take a look on Greg's post on this page top. There is pretty clear where 'team_space_namespace_id' comes from. Try reproduce something similar. 😉 One more thing, at present access token is 'short lived' only. If you need long term access, refresh token may be object of consideration from your side.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for the reference it helped. I see that there are solutions to download files are recreate the whole structure and downloading them. Is there a single function that can handle downloading a complete directory
ex: I want to download a whole FolderA with (subfolder1, subfolder2, subfolder3)
I could only find the below for files is there for folders by any chance?:
dbx_admin_team_root.files_download_to_file()Hi again mukesh111,
You can download a folder as zip file. You can use the zip stream using files_download_zip and unzip the content on fly or save it as file using files_download_zip_to_file. 😉
Good luck.
