    <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the report. Can you try switching to &lt;A href="https://dropbox-sdk-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/dropbox.html#dropbox.dropbox_client.Dropbox.files_search_v2" target="_self"&gt;files_search_v2&lt;/A&gt;/&lt;A href="https://dropbox-sdk-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/dropbox.html#dropbox.dropbox_client.Dropbox.files_search_continue_v2" target="_self"&gt;files_search_continue_v2&lt;/A&gt; and let me know if you do or don't see the issue with that as well?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Python files_search - Inconsistent returns</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/Python-files-search-Inconsistent-returns/m-p/554894#M26296</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi I have a folder with the following files:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="EvertonReis_0-1635951319326.png" style="width: 489px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/25926i76C5F843C1D8A582/image-dimensions/489x44?v=v2" width="489" height="44" role="button" title="EvertonReis_0-1635951319326.png" alt="EvertonReis_0-1635951319326.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;When I do the following search:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="EvertonReis_1-1635951428287.png" style="width: 716px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/25927i97FA092999651B4A/image-dimensions/716x165?v=v2" width="716" height="165" role="button" title="EvertonReis_1-1635951428287.png" alt="EvertonReis_1-1635951428287.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It finds just the file with modification date of 2021-10-28. If I keep running the same query, eventually it returns:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="EvertonReis_2-1635951595820.png" style="width: 719px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/25928i2AE459A553E95181/image-dimensions/719x203?v=v2" width="719" height="203" role="button" title="EvertonReis_2-1635951595820.png" alt="EvertonReis_2-1635951595820.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In this results we have both files.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If I keep doing the same query, the results will keep changing. It is not related with r&lt;SPAN&gt;ecent changes&amp;nbsp;in the file, because this same problem was happening with a file that was modified more than 24h ago. In this example, it has passed 2h since last update in the file.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Can you assist on this?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Greg,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I still observe the same behaviour using the files_search_v2:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="EvertonReis_0-1635956021829.png" style="width: 512px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/25929iE73E1D6EEA93DC66/image-dimensions/512x315?v=v2" width="512" height="315" role="button" title="EvertonReis_0-1635956021829.png" alt="EvertonReis_0-1635956021829.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Note: Here the result is 3 or 4 because it finds some files that are in a "Backup" folder, while we specified the folder "RESEARCH" in the first example with `files_search`.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I believe I don't need to use the `files_search_continue_v2` as I have few search results.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Some additional data:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;dropbox Version: 11.22.0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Windows 10 Pro Version: 10.0.18362.0&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Python version: 3.7.7&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
