    @Sheeja, Did you try set "quiet" parameter to true when you add a file/folder member? 😉

Thanks for the solution.Currently i'm using the following java sdk method to add folder: 

dbxclient.sharing().addFolderMember(sharedFolderId, selectors)

I couldn't find the quiet parameter here as part of the input. Is there a way to set this parameter here or any other way using sdk

Hi again Sheeja,

That's because you're using simplified method with limited available options. More options are available with other method that returns builder. There you can set quiet option. 😉

Hope this helps.
