When you say you're using the "correct" path, are you accounting for the typo? (The typo is the misplaced 'a' in "deatils".)

To be clear, based on the screenshot you supplied, the path you would need to use would be:
- if you're using a full Dropbox app: "/Apps/AndroidDbAppStorage/deatils_item.json"
- if you're using the app with the app folder permission for that "AndroidDbAppStorage" app folder: "/deatils_item.json"

Additionally, make sure you're using an access token for the right account.

That error indicates that there's nothing at the path you're supplying to the call. 

 

I see that you may have a typo causing this issue. In your post, you said you want to download "details_item", but in the screenshot of your account I see your filename has a typo: "deatils_item.json". Please correct the typo or the path value you're supplying to fix this.

If you uploaded the file using the same access token, that does mean you're using the right account to download from. (It doesn't indicate what permission level your app has though.)

 

Please make sure you're using the correct path value per my last reply.
