Dropbox .NET CreateFolderAsync fails for Top level folder.

Richard T. S.

The code is simple:

The mClient is logged in to access my APP folder.

public async Task<FolderMetadata> CreateFolder(String DBPath) {
      return await mClient.Files.CreateFolderAsync(DBPath);
}

 

1) A DBPath = "New Folder" fails

2) a DBPath = "/Status/New Folder"  works

Now with more testing ... I find the "/New Folder" works.

When working with the Swift API I was told to DROP the leading "/" for API V2 for top LEVEL objects.

WHATS THE TRUTH ???

Only the root path itself should omit the "/", that is, you represent root by the empty string: ".

Any non-root path should include the "/", that is, these are valid paths: "/Status/New Folder" and "/New Folder", but "New Folder" isn't.
