search_v2 API does not work when using id

Hi ,

The specification of search_v2 api(link) is written as follows. so I tried to search by id.

path String(pattern="(/(.|[\r\n]):*)?|id:.*|(ns:[0-9]+(/.*)?)")? Scopes the search to a path in the user's Dropbox. Searches the entire Dropbox if not specified. This field is optional.

But, When send a request with the id on using Dropbox Api Explore , return 400 error.

Does search_v2 api not support searching by id?

description:

request:

(Authorization and path value is masked.)

curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/search_v2 \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"Sample","options":{"path":"id:dummy"}}'

Response:

Error: 400
Error in call to API function "files/search_v2": <redacted>

Thanks,

FYI As requested in a recent email from dropbox, I've just converted our system to use the /search_v2 api and am experiencing this problem as well.

"Error in call to API function "files/search_v2": rpc error: ... deep stack trace removed ..."

@rm2020 Thanks for the additional report. The team is aware of the issue and is looking into it. I recommend switching to using paths instead of IDs when calling /2/files/search_v2 to avoid this error.

Same here, but we have the problem that we haven't paths on our system, only ids.

We need to do a previous get_metadata request to get the path and then filter by path.

@Lito Thanks for the note! I'll follow up here once I have an update on this issue.
