dangvu2308

Hi,

Im trying to copy files from individual folder to a team folder by using https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/copy_v2

However, im receiving error from_lookup/not_found/. I tried to include Dropbox-Api-Select-Admin but i didnt work.

I also try to copy files within team folder but it doesnt work. Can anyone help me with this issue?

Hi @dangvu2308,

The error "from_lookup/not_found" indicates that the "from_path" value was not found within the account whose access token is being used. Please verify that the folder path exists in the given account before calling the /2/files/copy_v2 endpoint. You should be able to confirm the folder path when calling the /2/files/list_folder/[continue].

Additionally, since you are looking to move files to a team folder, as well as move files between team folders, you will need to configure API calls to operate in the "team space". This is because by default, API calls to the Dropbox API operate in the "member folder" of the connected account, not the "team space". 

That said, in order to perform actions in the "team space", you'll need to set the "Dropbox-API-Path-Root" header. You can find information on how to use this in the Team Files Guide.

I hope you find this information helpful!
