      <description>&lt;P&gt;In your subject, you seem to be referring to the "Dropbox Chooser", which is a pre-built way for developers to easily allow their end users to choose files or folders from their&amp;nbsp;Dropbox accounts to give to the third party app. If you're interested in using that, you can find &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/chooser" target="_self"&gt;more information here&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;From your description though, it sounds like that may not be quite the functionality&amp;nbsp;you're looking for. If you want to be able to programmatically list the contents of a folder, such as the root folder, you'd need to use the&amp;nbsp;Dropbox API instead.&amp;nbsp;The Dropbox API lets third party apps list, upload, and download files and folders, among other operations. You can find &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers" target="_self"&gt;everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation and tutorials, here&lt;/A&gt;. For instance, to list the contents of a folder, including the root folder, you'd use the &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-list_folder" target="_self"&gt;/2/files/list_folder&lt;/A&gt;[&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-list_folder-continue" target="_self"&gt;/continue&lt;/A&gt;] endpoints (or corresponding methods in an SDK/library). I also recommend reading &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/lp/developers/reference/dbx-file-access-guide" target="_self"&gt;the File Access Guide&lt;/A&gt; as it sounds relevant to your use case.&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the prompt reply.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Yes, it is&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;Dropbox Chooser which I'm already using the functionality but I want the end-users to be able to select the root folder that contains all the files and folders in their dropbox account.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks for clarifying. Yes, in that case you'd need to use the API since the Chooser doesn't support selecting the root itself.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thank you.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;It would be nice if you could point me to the API link I can use to select the root itself.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
