    <description>&lt;P&gt;That's correct, you'll need to check the list and filter based on the desired name. Shared folder names are not unique identifiers, so it's possible for there to be more than one for any particular name. That being the case, it's not possible to look up a specific single shared folder just based on a name.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;And yes, you should check for the path to see if it's mounted.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>shareFolderId with folder name</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/shareFolderId-with-folder-name/m-p/576686#M26894</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;someone shared a folder with me, to upload in that shared folder , the folder must be mounted.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I got the method to mount the shared folder but that required sharefolderId,&amp;nbsp; Till now what I found to get the sharedfolderId is to use&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;ListMountableFoldersAsync&lt;/STRONG&gt; method, but that will return all mountable folders&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Can we get shareFolderId with folder name.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;That's correct, the &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Sharing_Routes_SharingUserRoutes_ListMountableFoldersAsync_1.htm" target="_self"&gt;ListMountableFoldersAsync&lt;/A&gt; method in the .NET SDK returns a &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/T_Dropbox_Api_Sharing_ListFoldersResult.htm" target="_self"&gt;ListFoldersResult&lt;/A&gt; with &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/P_Dropbox_Api_Sharing_ListFoldersResult_Entries.htm" target="_self"&gt;Entries&lt;/A&gt; being a list of &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/T_Dropbox_Api_Sharing_SharedFolderMetadata.htm" target="_self"&gt;SharedFolderMetadata&lt;/A&gt;. There's &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/P_Dropbox_Api_Sharing_SharedFolderMetadata_Name.htm" target="_self"&gt;a SharedFolderMetadata.Name property&lt;/A&gt; that you can use to get the shared folder name.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;May be I have not explained the issue properly.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;After getting the list I can filter it with name, but question is...&amp;nbsp; I don't want to get entire list, I just want to pass the foldername as param instead of sharefolderId, so that I can fetch the sharefolderId from metadata, otherwise I have to run loop and filter with foldername then get the sharefolderId.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Also is there anyway to check if the folder is already mounted.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1517287"&gt;@parvezalam&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I understand what you are asking for, but there is no other way, as far as I know.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1517287"&gt;@parvezalam&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;wrote:&lt;BR /&gt;...&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;P&gt;Also is there anyway to check if the folder is already mounted.&lt;/P&gt;...&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you take a look on documentation:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;Unmounted shared folders can be identified by the absence of SharedFolderMetadata.path_lower.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;P&gt;I.e. a folder has been mounted when there is local path (local to the context account) within the metadata. &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@41457EF40051AFF130FDBFE21B496926/emoticons/1f609.png" alt=":winking_face:" title=":winking_face:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hope this helps.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Yes for checking the mounted or not I have checked PathLower Properties.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
