How can I create a team folder inside my app's folder?
I want to share a folder with structure (hierarchy of folders) to my team members, I tried it with shared folder but other user not able to see proper structure.
My account has team functionality. I tried to create team folder using team_team_folder_v2_create() with my app (app has all permission) but api returns no_write_permission.
I want to share structure for this do I need to create team folder, and how can I create team folder inside my app i.e. Apps>My_app>teamfolder.
Please help me there
Thanks in advance.
Hi @Akansh Gautam,
About the error of team folder creation, seems you have forgot select 'team_data.content.write' space.
About sharing, it's unsupported for App folder.
Currently, app folders are incompatible with shared/team folders, meaning you can't share an app folder, put a shared/team folder inside an app folder or put an app folder in a shared/team folder.
Instead, if you need to use the API with shared/team folders, you'll need to use "full Dropbox" access type, as opposed to the app folder access type. You can find more information about app permissions here:
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/developer-guide#app-permissions
It's not possible to change the access type on an existing app, but you can register another with the full Dropbox access type at:
