Adding group to the Team Folder using API not working

petrovski

Hello,

I am having issues with the dropbox api v2

I am trying to add group to team folder using the 2/sharing/add_folder_member

I am sending the request with this body:

{
  "shared_folder_id": :team_folder_id,
  "members": [
    {
      "member": {
        ".tag": "dropbox_id",
        "dropbox_id": :group_id
      },
      "access_level": {
        ".tag": "editor"
      }
    }
  ]
}

, and headers:

Authorization [Bearer :team_member_file_access_token],

Dropbox-API-Select-User [:business_account_owner_team_member_id]

The provided user in the headers is member of the group

This api call was working fine before, but since the last week always gives access_error - not_a_member error.

Can you please tell me how to fix this or if there is another way to add group to team folder?

Thanks,

Borche

I believe this is due to a change in how our membership model works for operations in team folders like this. 

We're looking into that change, but to make this work, please use the "Member file access" feature with an app with the "team member file access" permission, and use the "Dropbox-API-Select-Admin" header with the team member ID of an admin instead.
