New API v2 sharing and unsharing errors

Ronan W.

Hi,

 

I have a few problems with the new API v2 when trying to remove a user:

curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/remove_folder_member \
 --header "Authorization: Bearer <OMITTED>" \
 --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
 --data '{"shared_folder_id": "<OMITTED REAL FOLDER ID>", "member": { ".tag": "email", "email": "myemail@me.com"}, "leave_a_copy": false }'

The response says:

Error in call to API function "sharing/remove_folder_member": Cannot remove members by e-mail yet.

 

So I tried to get the dropbox_id to test if I can remove a collaborator through that, but I don't see an endpoint to get the dropbox_id neither an endpoint to list all the collaborators that a folder has.

 

I would be very grateful if someone can help me out.  

 

Thanks a lot,

Ronan

The /sharing/remove_folder_member documentation says:

"dropbox_id String Dropbox account, team member, or group ID of member to add."

So, you have a few choices of what kind of ID you can supply. For example, you can get a Dropbox account ID from /users/get_current_account (for the linked user), or of members of a shared folder using /sharing/get_folder_metadata, in membership.user.account_id or team_member_id.
