Calling ListFolder with id

[jlibe]

Hi Team,

I try to list folder with the following path format : 

id:XXXXXXXXXX

It returns the following unless the folder does exist (I get the id from a previous list folder call, witch gives me subfolder list)...

Call details :

curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"path":"id:xxxxxxxxx"}'

Reponse :

{ "error_summary": "path/not_found/...", "error": { ".tag": "path", "path": { ".tag": "not_found" } } }

Can you help me on this issue please ?

I'm not sure I understand your question. What behavior do you want in this case? Do you want to be able to list the (deleted) contents of the deleted folder?

If the folder does not exist (e.g., it was deleted), attempting to access it is supposed to fail with a 'path/not_found' indicating that it doesn't exist.

Hi Greg,

Thanks for your answer.

Actually the folder DOES exist. It is not deleted or else...

I just want to list its content with "id method", but it doesn't work for me.

Anyone can help me ?

Can you let me know how you're checking that the folder for this ID is not deleted?

If you supply the ID itself, that may be helpful. You can open an API ticket if you'd prefer to share the details privately:
