Re: shared app directory, exists but inaccessible to my app

shared app directory, exists but inaccessible to my app

Created an app, linked to a specific directory. Lets call it acme. 

Create acme directory on my dropbox which I shared and placed some more directories and files within it.

Able to authenticate as the app using an HTTP API call.

But when I call the share files API call; I get an error, like it doesn't work. 

curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/list_shared_links  --header "Authorization: Bearer ab--AUTHCODE"  --header "Content-Type: application/json"  --data "{}"

Unable to list any files in this directory at all!!

Was using a more generic app access to all files in my dropbox, that let me list any directory. That worked like a charm, perfectly.
