      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm not able to find some of the files that definitely exist in the dropbox folder.&amp;nbsp; The API call comes back empty but I can download the file using the full path.&amp;nbsp; Below is an example of such file, and the result of the query.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I've tried different search strings and none of them worked for this specific file.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The API does find other similarly named files in the same folder.&amp;nbsp; It just seem to selectively fail for some files.&amp;nbsp; How can I troubleshot this?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;The results from&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-search" target="_self"&gt;/2/files/search_v2&lt;/A&gt; aren't always exhaustive unfortunately, but we can check on this internally if you'd like. It'd best if you &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/contact" target="_self"&gt;open an API ticket&lt;/A&gt; if so, preferably while signed in to the relevant account if possible (if it's one you control). Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello I will open a ticket, however this sounds like an indexing problem with the new search API.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; a search by file name should NOT fail, otherwise what is the point of storing files in the dropbox if you can't find them later.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;when you say the search is not "exhaustive" what does this mean exactly?&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Is dropbox going to address the root cause?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&amp;gt; Some results may not be returned.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;it sounds like something is fundamentally broken with this API and it should not have been released&amp;nbsp; to production.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;things were fine in the past, but now i have users of the app reporting random failures.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Anything you can do to address this would be appreciated.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the note! I can't make any promises myself, but I've sent this along to the team.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
