    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1575475"&gt;@1575475&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You're mixing different things. File/folder id is NOT the same as shared folder id!. &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@FBF7D2AB59A0D6E861EBF6A36F93B7E2/emoticons/1f642.png" alt=":slightly_smiling_face:" title=":slightly_smiling_face:" /&gt; That's where your confusion comes from. Even more - in such a way you have created regular folder, not shared folder. &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 clarifies matter.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Unable to fetch metadata of shared folder</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;after creating a shared folder via endpoint&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;PRE&gt;https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/create_folder_v2&lt;/PRE&gt;
&lt;P&gt;a folder id in the form "id:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" is returned.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;When trying to fetch the metadata of this particular folder later on using the endpoint&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;PRE&gt;https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/get_folder_metadata&lt;/PRE&gt;
&lt;P&gt;and that very id, I receive an error response that the id is invalid.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The documentation/example of above endpoint has been updated recently, now using folder ids in the form "0000000" (numeric only).&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;So, how can I access the metadata of a folder having an id in the form of&amp;nbsp;"id:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thank you very much in advance.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Best,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Jan&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;Здравко,&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Thank you, that's exactly what I was assuming. But anyway, how can I fetch the metadata of an "ordinary" folder (using an Id such as "id:xxxxxxxxxxxx")?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Best regards,&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Jan&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&amp;nbsp;Здравко,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;many, many kudos to you!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I didn't get that the endpoint you mentioned works with ids, too ( not only the path).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Best regards,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Jan&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
