dbx.files_list_folder_continue(curson) fails when using SharedLink
Hi,
I am listing a password-protected folder shared via a link.
result = dbx.files_list_folder(path=root, shared_link=dropbox.files.SharedLink(url=url, password=password))
for entry in result.entries:
if isinstance(entry, dropbox.files.FolderMetadata):
# do some action with a folder
else:
# do some action with a file
while result.has_more:
result = dbx.files_list_folder_continue(result.cursor)
for entry in result.entries:
if isinstance(entry, dropbox.files.FolderMetadata):
# do another action with a folder
else:
# do another action with a file
dbx.files_list_folder() call goes through all right, however dbx.files_list_folder_continue(result.cursor) fails everytime and the message is not very explanatory:
dropbox.exceptions.ApiError: ApiError('5c91fda84dd6487b9357c3a72be962e7', ListFolderContinueError('path', LookupError('not_found', None)))
Any guesses what is wrong? Cheers.

This should be fixed now. Note that using cursors retrieved before the fix will still result in an error though.
