Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
I am trying to fetch the permissions of multiple files using batching, I have shared a file `abc.txt` to a group which was created automatically and includes invited members. But while running the API, response is not returning that group.
API endpoint: https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/list_file_members/batch
Response:
{
"file": "id:88aWjhZozYsAAAAAAAAAyA",
"result": {
".tag": "result",
"members": {
"users": [],
"groups": [],
"invitees": []
},
"member_count": 0
}
},<p> </p>
This is the expected behavior for /2/sharing/list_file_members/batch; groups are not returned by this endpoint. Refer to the /2/sharing/list_file_members/batch documentation for a note about this. To get group information, you'd need to use /2/sharing/list_file_members instead.
I am getting the group if it's group management type is `user_managed` or `company_managed` but if type is `system_managed`, then it's not getting returned in /2/sharing/list_file_members/batch .
What's the case of getting the group and what's the case for not getting it in batching API?
I can't offer more information or a guarantee beyond what's included in the documentation for the endpoint. Please refer to that for information on what information/behavior to rely on for the endpoint.
