Empty response and has_more true at /team_log/get_events

We are using endpoint /team_log/get_events and with some queryes it returns empty response (randomly). For example
1. URL: https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/team_log/get_events
body:

{
    "limit": 1000,
    "time": {
        "start_time": "2024-01-01T19:48:51Z"
    }
}

Response

{
    "events": [],
    "cursor": "AAB0zDiP0dP_Yxqh0JE4cmAp1bVGd3a....",
    "has_more": true
}

2. URL: https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/team_log/get_events
body: (increase day)

{
    "limit": 1000,
    "time": {
        "start_time": "2024-01-24T20:49:51Z"
    }
}

Response

{
    "events": [{}], // 1000 events
    "cursor": "AAB0zDiP0dP_Yxqh0JE4cmAp1bVGd3a....",
    "has_more": true
}

The most interesting.
This startDate - "2024-01-23T23:46:10Z" returns empty array and has_more: true
This startDate - "2024-01-23T23:46:11Z" returns array with 1000 elements and has_more: true

The 'events' list returned by /2/team_log/get_events and /2/team_log/get_events/continue does not have a guaranteed minimum size, and so may have a size of 0 in some cases. It may vary across calls, teams, parameter values, etc. Whenever an app receives "has_more": true it should call back to /2/team_log/get_events/continue with the returned cursor.

But I'm receiving empty array in https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/team_log/get_events also. But as I understood we need just call /2/team_log/get_events/continue with cursor in loop

Yes, this applies to both /2/team_log/get_events and /2/team_log/get_events/continue. In any case that you get "has_more": true, whether from /2/team_log/get_events or /2/team_log/get_events/continue, you should call back to /2/team_log/get_events/continue.
