How to get list members on a team folder using team admin token?

How to get list members on a team folder using team admin token?

Hi,

How can I use the team admin token to find the member list on a team folder? My doubt is, to get the list of members I need to provide some memberId with header "Dropbox-API-Select-User". But I dont know who all has access on the folder so I cannot provide that info. Please help.

Thanks,

Manish

To use the team member file access feature to access arbitrary team content, even if you don't yet know who is a member of the folder, you should use "Dropbox-API-Select-Admin" instead of "Dropbox-API-Select-User". If supply any team admin's ID as "Dropbox-API-Select-Admin", you'll be able to call /2/sharing/list_folder_members[/continue] (or other such endpoints) even if that admin is not a member of the folder. You can find more information in the documentation here.
