    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Ashley, "include_has_explicit_shared_members" is a parameter that you can set on some endpoints, such as &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-get_metadata" target="_self"&gt;/2/files/get_metadata&lt;/A&gt;. The documenation there documents it as:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;"include_has_explicit_shared_members Boolean If true, the results will include a flag for each file indicating whether or not that file has any explicit members. The default for this field is False."&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you click on the "FileMetadata" return type to expand it, you'll also see the corresponding "has_explicit_shared_members" response field, which is documented as:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;"has_explicit_shared_members Boolean? This flag will only be present if include_has_explicit_shared_members is true in list_folder or get_metadata. If this flag is present, it will be true if this file has any explicit shared members. This is different from sharing_info in that this could be true in the case where a file has explicit members but is not contained within a shared folder. This field is optional."&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You asked about what "include_has_explicit_shared_members" would return, but that's the argument, not part of the&amp;nbsp;response. To summarize though, "has_explicit_shared_members" will only be returned if you did set&amp;nbsp;"include_has_explicit_shared_members" to true in the call, and then the value of&amp;nbsp;"has_explicit_shared_members" will only be true if the file has explicit shared members. That should include the particular scenario you described.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I was wondering if there was any documentation around include_has_explicit_shared_members? Should this return true for the following example&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have a shared folder with a number of files.&amp;nbsp; If I share the file with another user that is not included on the orginal share. Should this return true indicating I need to make a request to get the extra members this file is shared with?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If not, when would this return true?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;</description>
