The Dropbox user ID of the authorized user returned by /oauth2/authorize is invalid

Victor A.18

According to API documentation, the /oauth2/authorize request must redirect to redirect_uri and send uid of the authorized user as one of parameters.

I see uid parameter in redirect but the value of uid parameter is not a user-id of my user also it's not a member id. I don't know what it is at all. Actually it is shorter than regular user id.

How I can determinate which user has beed used to authorise the API access?

Dropbox for Business API apps are linked to teams themselves (as opposed to Dropbox API apps, which are linked to individual users). This being the case, the uid returned by the authorization flow for Dropbox for Business apps is the ID of the team, not any particular user.

It's not currently possible to determine which admin for the team authorized the app, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.

Thanks for your explanation, Gregory

Seems it's something like internal id of team because /team/get_info returns id like this dbtid: AAA-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Yes, the integer version is a it's a different/older format for the team ID.

The Dropbox API now offers a way to determine which admin authorized a particular access token:

If you're using an official SDK, there will also be corresponding method for this endpoint.
