Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
Hi, I'm trying to search a file in a dropbox buisness account. I am able to use the search api for an individual dropbox but i want to be able to acheive the same thing for a buisness account aswell. I can list the folders using the api aswell and create a folder in dropbox buisness account but not search.

in the header i passed these four parameters
* Authorization: Bearer sl.........
* Content-Type: application/json
* Dropbox-API-path_Root: {".tag": "root", "root": "name-space-id"}
* Dropbox-API-Select-User: dbmid:.....
In body I'm passing

Its gives a response of 200 on postman but it should have returned the path and details of that file.
its gives this response
This response indicates that nothing was found for that particular query for the specified member under the specified namespace. Please check that your query, member ID, and namespace ID are correct. If your values are correct but you are missing search results, feel free to open an API ticket here and we'll look into it. Please include the query, member ID, and namespace ID, but continue to redact the access token.
